Love this app!

I never gave a crap about my diabetes until I lost both of my parents at the age of 51. They both were diabetic and although that wasn’t necessarily the cause of their death as my dad had cancer and my mom had an upper GI bleed along with other issues it certainly did not help. My A1C was out of control at 10.2! Here I was downing mountain dews and never checking my sugar eating whatever I wanted. I gave up sodas, and fast food but finally have started checking my sugar as well. My endocrinologist has requested that I check my sugar randomly throughout the day and keep a record... well it has finally happened because of this app! 💕

Ads make it worthless

The app has a lot of decent features. The interface is cluttered to the point it’s hard to use and hard to find things. The reporting aspect of the app is poorly done, and that’s the most important part. In the free version, the ads after a day become so obnoxious that it’s fundamentally unusable. Full screen ads with the volume forced to 100% that offends everyone in the room. If you purchase this app you are funding a company that cares about monetizing the app far more than providing a good user experience. A premium subscription is VERY expensive, and honestly provides only a few real benefits, outside of removing the ads. I will look at EVERY alternative in the App Store before I feed this marketing tactic. There is a “plus” version with a one time app purchase that likely removes some ads, but there is no clear statement of any difference so the only way to know is to buy it and find out. If you read enough review responses, you will learn if you buy that version you simply get another nagging form of encouragement to buy the expensive subscription. What this app provides is worth no where close to what the premium version provides.

This app was great

I loved this app before they changed to the subscription model a few months back. There are so many things you used to be able to do that aren’t available, even small things like using a custom label instead of before/after a meal. And now in order to share your graphs with your doctor you can only go back two weeks and you have to print it out vs email it. It’s a real shame not to be able to afford an app that used to be an asset to my medical care. I would have been able to use this app had there been a one time purchase price, but I can’t justify adding another monthly automatic charge just to log my glucose levels. I used to hype this app to everyone I knew with diabetes. Even my doctor was impressed, although I had to explain what happened when I could no longer send her my full detailed data via the health portal. Now I tell everyone about the app, explain how the developers forced a subscription model on users, and use it as an example of how patients suffer when profiting from their diseases becomes the goal. I wish I had never trusted this developer with my data. Now it’s locked away and I had to start over again with another app.

Not easy to use, weird ad blocking screen

I’m not sure how this has gotten such good reviews! From the very beginning, there was a lot of pressure to “upgrade“, with even a warning of it this will be the “only time” I can upgrade, with a full screen countdown clock? 10,9,8...what? Of course I said no, and it ends up that the features they were trying to get me to pay for, are already on the app such as your A-1 C average level? I wanted to enter previous data from the last month but that became too difficult in this app. When you are entering the information, they have a tag that you can say before breakfast or before lunch etc. but then they don’t have a separate area to add food. Even though I might be entering my fasting blood sugar level, they make you add the food on that page? So in that entry you have to look hard to understand that I ate that breakfast AFTER I took my level. Also after entering about four numbers, this ad began to block the view and then when you click the X to close it, it would open it. That happened a few times, and I quickly deleted the app!!! Never had anything like this on an app!

I Used To Love This App

I have used Glucose Buddy for several years and loved it! It was so helpful to me, that I shared it with my diabetic health care team, in hopes they could let other patients no how it helped me. That is no longer the case! Version 5 of Glucose Buddy was released during the fall of 2017 and the App (in my opinion) was ruined. First, the data entry screen no longer fits on the screen of my mobile device. Some of the selections are barely visible. Second are the incessant and annoying pop-up ads that make viewing the App’s screens very difficult. Finally are the high pressure ads to subscribe to the premium version of Glucose Buddy for a fee of $60 per year. Many of the most helpful features of Glucose Buddy are only available with a premium subscription, which I’m unwilling to pay. If you ignore the reviews of the pre-version 5 Glucose Buddy you can see the ratings drop from 4 & 5 stars to 1, 2 & 3 stars. (check for your self)

I can no longer recommend Glucose Buddy to others.

GB Improvements

Great App, simple and easy to use, great way to keep track of blood sugar readings in an easily understandably format. Plus can email results directly to Dr, cutting down on time consuming expensive visits. Only two things keeps it from a Five Star Rating, wish would add capability for two separate accounts, so could keep track of my wife's readings all in one App, and it's a small nitpicking thing, wish you would add another "Fasting" category with it's own color. My Dr is mainly interested in my "Fasting" readings, and I can only list "Out of Bed" or "Before Breakfast", which show up with the same colors as "Other" or "Before Meals", causing some confusion and time consuming research to separate them. Add those capabilities, and you've really got a winner.

Developer Response ,

Hi @Kenrit thanks for writing us a review and providing us with your feedback. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying Glucose Buddy!


Before meals, such as "Before Breakfast" is now in red and "Out of Bed" would be in green under Other.


If you have anymore feedback or questions for us, please contact us at support@azumio.com and we will be more than happy to help!

OK but user interface is terrible

The app is great overall. They use a data collection strategy to get users hooked on the practicality of the product. Then when you try to use advanced features or download the data you entered, you have to pay for it. So I guess that works pretty well for them...


Then there’s the user interface, with “features” such as clicking on one item (food) to enter some data, but SURPRISE, when you searched and clicked on hummus, you are now entering carbs for cereal bars. Note, this is what they call in developer land “a UI error to be fixed in beta testing”. But oh well, once you navigate around the other “nuances” the thing works pretty well I guess. Much better than comparable products, but please pay your dev team, QA their work and give them and the UX UI designers time to get it right.

One Stop Shopping, Kinda

2 days in and great app so far. I’m a visual person so graphs and images resonate and sometimes inspire me.

I love Integrated tracking of medicine, blood pressure, nutrition (haven’t used this yet but awesome that it’s here), and exercise tracking.

I am disappointed that my 2 main activities are not listed; Crossfit and Martial Arts (specifically Filipino Martial Arts).

I am also disappointed that there is no way to integrate a heart rate monitor for real time tracking during exercise.

Otherwise this is one of the best apps for diabetes tracking I’ve seen. One stop health tracking is where it’s at! Keep up the awesome work.

Still Ads and No Support

Not even counting the limitations on adding meals. Paid for ad free version to use, one year. Constantly get a pop up asking me if I want to purchase the app for a discount for a limited time that then disappears shortly after. Trying to add A1C to average, but apparently there is no support. When I try to access support from app it asks me to try something else for free it takes me to a sales force site where I can pay for something? Did they mess up a plug in for their app and it’s for their company or what happened? Try to access support from App Store and it takes me to a site saying it’s not found. Going to find alternative and cancel subscription.


TLDR - Still ads even though I paid for full version, only time I needed support in years and there is no help or support and site errors.

Difficult to receive support

I was initially excited to have this app because it seemed to have it all! Exercise log, data sync, nutrition, weight management, etc. I was most excited to have the ability to sync my Dexcom! I made the premium purchase and.... have yet to have my Dexcom sync. I have tried several times and nothing each time. I attempted to find support for this issue. Stuff happens right? I attempted to get support through the app and revive an error via that way and then tried via the website and am prompted to purchase or have two weeks free of another application in order to receive support for it. I have tried several times to receive support and I have not been able to do so. It has rendered the application and premium purchase completely useless to me.

Usually Pretty Frazzled ,

There is a Big Difference Between Paying for Something of that is Well Made & Being Extorted

I couldn’t agree with MommaHippi more. This app used to be something special. Something I would have paid for because it was worth it back then. But I wasn’t asked. I wasn’t warned. The app was just suddenly changed, and I discovered that if I wanted my information I would be charged a substantially large fee for it. I’ve given the new app a chance, but find myself becoming upset when I try to use it. Now it’s just like all the other apps that do the same thing - but the interface is ugly and confusing. Developers do this to themselves and their customers a lot these days. It must be profitable. I’m going back to paper and pencil.


PS - I don’t recall my user name being “usually pretty frazzled”.

Amytincan ,

Simple and well worth it

I have never written a review before for an app. I held out on paying for the upgraded price because $ you know, but it got a bit hard using multiple free apps to track health things. I tried several extensively and while others may look more fun, this app does what I need it to do. It’s very easy using the app to track the things I need. If I want to track more things it has the capability. I can track less if I want. I don’t like having to track but this app makes it easier.

mikemartines ,

Great app — no bugs

I’ve been using the app for over a year and haven’t had any major issues with it. It’s stable and helpful. I do wish it provided more analytical data capability, but it is good for tracking carbs it even recognizes food when you take a picture. It has recognized every barcoded item I’ve tried and lets you reuse items you’ve already scanned and even input your own recipes. It can always use more enhancements like the data analyzing capability I mentioned and a better recipe building capability and salad or sandwich building capability.

Feedback Review because Support Page “Not Found” through link

1. My steps do not sync with my watch and are off by over 1,200-1,500 everyday. The rest syncs perfectly.

2. Quick Add will not allow me to enter Carbs nor will it allow me to save without adding Carbs. For example I had black coffee that couldn’t be found in the Search. I opted for Quick Add and manually entered the information. It was 0 carbs per the info online (barcode unavailable). I entered 0. I went to save and an error popped up to enter carbs. I entered 0 again. Same message. I tried entering 1 to move on and it would not allow me to enter any number other than the 0 that was not accepted either.

Not happy

I decided to pay this high amount for the app because it seemed to have everything I was looking for, including nutrition information like how much fat etc I consumed in my day besides the food diary.

Now the app was updated and that feature gone. I can put in my nutrition goals but have no place to actually check if I reached them like it used to be. It now has the same features as other free apps and I feel like I’ve wasted my money.

The email system to reach support never works. No clue why, it has my correct email address. I am not sure how to cancel my subscription or get any help if I can’t get in touch. I’d not pay this amount again and regret I did now that important features to me are gone.

Find something else

This would be a good app. I paid for the full version about a year ago. They made some improvements after making some errors. But STOP trying to sell me stuff. I paid for the app!


The latest round of trying to sell me something with a button that sits in front of everything else and doesn’t go away and won’t allow you to simply reject their selling attempt is absolutely ridiculous. Not only is it annoying that it’s right in FYI t of you but it’s located right where your thumb would enter information so inadvertently you click it. THEN everyday it has a message asking if you want to continue reading!!

I didn’t want it in the first place and I’m so sick and tired of the annoying button I’m going to a different app.

Zen the Ducky ,

People are funny - especially me!

I really like this app. I loved the old insights and when it was updated I was mad. Couldn't stand the new insights. So they put the old one back because I’m guessing many others breathed fire and brimstone on the development team. Well now after reverting, I think I preferred the new interface! Maybe adding the older charting to the new interface as an extra would resolve many issues. I wonder how many people actually experienced this change. Anyway. Thumbs up to the development team.

Glucose Buddy has made a difference in my life.

Over the last two years, I have been using the FreeStyle LibraLink sensor to check my blood sugar. I knew my blood sugar was out of control but did not know how to manage it. In February 2021, I discovered Glucose Buddy. This program has made a huge difference for me. When I started using it my A1 C was 6.6. It is now 6.3. Other benefits are that I have lost weight and my meds have been reduced. ..all from using Glucose Buddy. Overall, I feel so much better. Using this program is easy. It is life changing.

Sugarbaby Mom ,

LOVE this App!

We recently went back to injections after being on a pump for 7 years. I had forgotten how much info there is to keep track of when you’re doing it without technology! We tried a different app and hated it. Love this one because of the reports, they help me see trends without having to use a CGM, that I can add all her different meds and track her glucose, carb intake, activity and insulin usage. The only thing that could possibly make this better would be if I could enter her ratios for figuring her insulin and correction factor.

GrandmaChristine ,

Great App!!!

I started using this app in February 2019. My A1C at the time was 8.6 and my proteins were over 600. I started tracking everything with this app and A1C is 6.8, protein is at 30, and I have lost 30 pounds. I went from 55 units of insulin to 30. Saw my Dr yesterday and she said drop to 25 units. When I go to the Dr. she can see all me glucose readings for the month. I love that with a few clicks she can see blood pressure readings, steps, or anything else this app tracks. I recommend this app to everyone I meet with diabetes. It was well worth the money!!

Hi GrandmaChristine,

I am so happy to hear how Glucose Buddy has helped you manage your diabetes!! Keep up the amazing work! - Jennifer

Love Glucose Buddy!

For now, I am only using the glucose recording function of this app because I use another app that tracks everything else. I love that it keeps track of my averages for me. It keeps me in line better when I not only have to test my blood sugar, but then I have to enter it into glucose buddy – – makes it more realistic than just looking at the number on my meter and turning it off. I highly recommend getting this app.

More than I need or want

I’ve used this app for quite awhile. It had a straightforward interface and feature set. The recent major upgrade of this app brought with it a lot of additional features, a major overhaul of the UI and sharing functionalities. All I need is an app that lets me record my blood glucose. I can’t imagine why I would ever share that with anyone! I don’t find the new overcomplicated UI to be an improvement either. The continued pop-ups asked how I like the app are really annoying, as are the overemphasized messages complaining that I don’t have location or sharing enabled. So, I’ve switched to an app that is simple and uncluttered with a swollen feature set. Sorry this app got so “improved”.

BarelyToleratingComputers ,

Not a useful app for the high price

Expensive subscription. Must pay to see what the app really offers. Why pay if I don’t know what I am paying for? What I see in the free app sure isn’t encouraging.


No Fitbit integration. No iOS activity tracking either bc no settings to enable the app to track motion or location - even though the app displays a message telling me I need to enable these settings. Activity is critical to diabetes management. Do not pay for any app that doesn’t do this well.


Graphs are ok but not insightful. Then there’s the doozie of “they don’t get it”: a page that displays a number... 384. Ok, I figured out that it is the average of two diabetes meds (measured in mg) and two types of insulin (measured in standard insulin units, not mg)! Additionally, Oral meds and basal insulin doses change infrequently. Bolus is volatile, driven by carbs and that activity the app cannot track. Ask your doctor what the average of these four numbers in unrelated units of measure tells you about your diabetes treatment...


Then delete this app and look for a different one.

narcolepticnurse ,

Very handy app :)

I do actually love this app. Makes it easy to remember and store blood sugars and spot trends in highs and lows.


My only cons are relatively minor. I do wish the tracker on the home screen was easier to read. It uses larger and smaller circles overlapping at times... just a little difficult to interpret. Also wish it allowed for different 24hr cycles. As a night shifter my day starts later than most and midnight is my mid day. Makes it harder to track for daily regulation. So I rate 4/5 for this. Still a very useful app.

Best app for diabetics! (Updated)

Update: 3/6/21

Current glitch, as of yesterday, is the app is not allowing me to choose custom carb portions. I will, for example, scan a label in which a serving size is 18 carbs per ounce. But when I try to enter 2 ounces, the screen turns orange and I gave no way to enter it.

Other than that, no complaints and it has been serving me well for over a year.


This is the best app for diabetics! I’m a type 1 since age two and this has really helped me get a better handle on my glucoses. I log my carbs, my glucose readings, and can trace patterns in my habits to better improve my A1C.

Hi Raekitten,

Pricey Subscription for Features that Lock Up

Overall, this app is crucial to me for tracking foods and blood glucose. The issues, though are frustrating. I find the app locking up in various features. I chose to pay for the monthly subscription so that I could utilize more tools that would benefit me most (more recipes instead of maximum of 5, quick add foods, filter searching). I am disappointed by the number of bugs that freeze the app, namely attempting to filter my Log to only display Blood Glucose. Considering I paid specifically hoping to use that feature, I would like to be able to use it!!!

Confusing interface

The app really pushes upgrading to premium, to the max! I tried it but deleted it after struggling inputting information and then looking for food information. The records are not completely editable. There is no way to select food types and get your nutritional information. It says take a photo. Are you kidding me? I know what I ate! The app pushes a lot of costly educational materials. If I was new to diabetes I would be sucked in. But I am not. Just need a simple application to track sugar, meds, and meals in a understandable less then 100 page report for my doctor. What doctor has time to look at a huge daily report that it generates? To much useless add-ones. Deleted it after trying it two times.

JimkVT ,

Glitch

I have my ReliOn Premium BLU meter linked to my app. The time settings are correct in the app and on my iPhone, yet when ever I take a reading, it transmits via Bluetooth with a time stamp 6 hours earlier than the actual time. I have to manually correct the time for every reading I take. Very frustrating. When I tried to report the issue on the app an error pops up saying that it can’t send emails and to check my settings. So I am having a hard time getting any support. Does anyone know of another app that I can link my meter to and also record daily medication and things like weight, diet? I’m open to suggestions. Thanks.

sbukosky ,

Better than My Plate

I understand that the Live Strong My Plate app has a different purpose and it served me well. I lost 70 pounds using it. But it does little to nothing to aid with diabetes control. I like how GB works, for the most part. I am educating myself other ways too, but I consider the app a must have. I bought the upgrade and am a few meals away from a report. I’d like to see a community or user group section for support. That and some other minor things prevent a five star rating. I give it a 4.1.

Mderooi ,

Lacks information

I really want to use this app for the information that I want to keep track of, but the time of recording is wrong most of the time. I purchased a years subscription and not sure that the subscription is worth it.

I am not able to see all the “view” information, like sugars etc. this is what I’m tracking, besides carbs, but can’t view that other info. The only thing it shows on the tracker is carbs, as far as food is concerned.

I feel that it needs improvement for the cost of it.

lmrad2 ,

Dislike the update!

The old version was simple, I loved it. The newest update is totally different and now I'm looking for a new app in which to log my daily glucose levels. I don't want all the "extras" plus for some reason I'm unable to receive log reports sent to any of my email accounts. I agree with every other negative review regarding the recent update. This went from a 5 star to a 1 star overnight.

Youcancallmedick ,

Glucose tracking

I’m 70 years old and pre-diabetic

I liked the old app better. Very simple for my needs. I do not carry my phone 24/7 so my steps thru out the day do not calculate. I have a ZAAZ machine and this app does not count those steps I accumulate when on the machine. So accuracy is way off. Wish it would register those steps.

Still learning how to do the rest.

Thank you for your app and helping me keep track of my blood sugars. It sure helps when I go to the doctor. Mahalo

Nightfall Centurion ,

Disappointed as well

I too was a fan of the previous version of this app. Screen design aside, I feel uneasy storing all my medical information in their cloud (if Experion can be hacked, their cloud would be child’s play) ! I see no reason readings can’t be stored locally and reported from there.

I also dislike the idea of “socializing” my health status. The apps functionality for doing that is completely unnecessary.

With the previous version I liked being able to log my activity/exercise “category” free form. My exercise activities don’t fit in their discrete list of categories so I have no accurate way to log them.

Diabetic Supporter ,

Awesome App

A loved ones A1C was out of control so I loaded this app on his phone as a device for him to track his carbs but this app is so much more. He can log his activity and it tells him his caloric intake and output. With subscription it tracks his A1C levels which is what we need in this critical time. This app keeps it organized-all in one app. I joined as support to cheer him on and can see his progress as a friend. I highly recommend. Great motivational tool.

Scottnj1966 ,

Pretty good app but it has its problems

After using the app for a few months I have enjoyed all it can do but after reading the reviews of what they app could do compared to what it cannot do now is a big change.


My one problem that I cannot seem to solve is my weight number in the app does not transfer into the apple health app like the other measurements. When will this be fixed?


Also why can’t I see my calculated A1c? I had to download a second app to have that feature.

Very Disappointed 😭 ,

Apple Watch not compatible :’(

I have just one want from this awesome app, is if I can also log my glucose numbers on my Apple Watch.


I test about 8 times per day, sometimes more, sometimes less...before & after sleep, before meals & snacks, plus the endlessly annoying corrections.


I was very disappointed a year ago when it wasn’t compatible with the Apple Watch, that’s whenI started to use this app.


I have been waiting patiently, even tried out about 10 other apps that were compatible with the Apple Watch, but I found myself more well matched with the Glucose Buddy, I just love this app so much. Thank you!


As a Type 1, I often go low & it’s more convenient if I can worry about 1 less responsibility if I can quickly log on my Apple Watch 🙏🏻🍎⌚️ :)

evondy ,

App has problems

I’m in my second year as a premium subscriber. At some point I lost access to the premium functions. It still shows I’m subscribed but I can’t do reports or see my a1c estimate. Contacting customer support is not easy as I’ve been met with links going to non-existent pages or customer contact pages that don’t work.


UPDATE: Jennifer solved the problem. Premium features are now working. Thanks Jennifer!!

Developer Response ,

Hi evondy,

I'm sorry to hear that you're having problems accessing the premium features in Glucose Buddy. I have an idea of what may be happening, so please email me at jenn@azumio.com and we will get you back on tracking to using Glucose Buddy as you should. I will look forward to your email! - Jennifer

techdavis ,

Mostly good, but a very annoying “feature”

Every couple of days, it asks if is use the same dosage every time for my insulin. Every time I say “no”. It doesn’t ever remember and asks again. I change my dosage depending on my blood sugar, and while I sometimes have 2 or 3 days of the same, it is not an all the time the same thing. If it were, I would not need an ap to track it!


Please just stop!

sancarlosjeff ,

I'm a fan.

Been using Glucose Buddy for several years now. I'm Type 2 and was pushing 250 lbs. I'm under control now and down 30 pounds. Seeing my numbers over time and trending makes a difference. The graphs, timeline and printing out for my doctors are the features I like best. Yes, I have tried others before finding Glucose Buddy. They discouraged me and actually delayed my progress. Glucose Buddy has become My Buddy.

Mark Crim ,

Wonder why?

I’ve been using this app for quite some time. Every aspect of my glucose levels (and beyond) are handled near perfectly. My only disappointment is with these two Azumio apps, Glucose Buddy and Argus. They each display multiple read outs on my weight. Instead of listing my weight once as expected, it will show it 3-4 times on every day readings are taken. I’ve reported it via the App Store, but no remedy after many months. I wonder why?

jtg89 ,

From Great to No Way

I have used Glucose Buddy for many years. It's been a real asset in maintaining blood glucose control. I even appreciated the recent upgrade. From a functional standpoint, GB is a hit.


The problem is the new ads which dominate the screen. I understand the owner needs to make money. Fine, have ads. But do those ads have to overwhelm the screen to the point it's hard to prior entries? I may have even been enticed to pay for the premium experience, but at $60 PER YEAR that is never going to happen.


Hate to say goodbye to my long time Glucose Buddy, but a break up is on the horizon.

BlickTX ,

Sorry, but it does too much.

I’m leaving Glucose Buddy because it has become a hovering nanny that needs to be paid to leave me alone to simply record my blood sugar. I brought my levels down for two years, but an illness and steroids shot it back up. I need to track for at least a month - just glucose, not food, exercise, contact friends, post on social media - and this hovering/selfie-ad infested app just doesn’t do it. If a nanny is needed, this app will fill the bill and for just a few dollars a month all the things I don’t need/want are available.

Bethwa ,

GB

The only downside to this app is that the suggested A1c was 10 points off what my actual A1c was, unless you are constantly monitoring it, it’s not going to be accurate so I’d recommend that be removed. Otherwise this app makes it easy to track , I use 2 different meters so this pulls it all into one spot. Like that you can add pictures and notes

Please add a blood pressure line too!!?

Prettyjs22 ,

First time user

Was looking for an app that would track my carbs and my glucose. Was excited to find this one. Unfortunately it won’t work unless I want to pay. I’ve searched several items I had at meals today and did not locate them. Yes I could add them, but only the name and calories....if I wanted to add the other info I’d need to upgrade to premium. I guess I’ll just have to stay with the 2 free apps I use right now to track food in one and glucose in the other.

Sugilite ,

Premium version still includes ads

I would have given this app 5 stars if it only tracked my numbers. But it constantly nags you to add additional services to your account, and continues to throw ads in your face. I’ve used the app for the past 3 years and I’m getting more and more annoyed with it. I don’t remember exactly what it costs, something like $30 per year. But for that kind of money, you would think that you would receive an ad free version. Today it wanted to sell me a scale.

Csmclatchy ,

Works well!

I really like Glucose Buddy, I paid the $40 for the annual membership and it’s worth it. I don’t know where people are getting $40 a month. I didn’t pay for the coaching or nutrition plan.


With that being said, the only thing I don’t like about it is that is doesn’t show in the daily list is the color difference in your blood sugar readings. It lists the number but not if it’s low or high. I can live with that though.


Today when my membership payment went through I got an SSL error. It said it wasn’t syncing with the server. I logged out and it said activate your purchase before logging in. I clicked ok, then tried to log in. I got an error that said it can’t establish a secure connection to the server and won’t let me log in now...


HELP!!!!

BBoaty ,

Nice find

I work in healthcare and was a little surprised that my provider wanted me to start taking blood glucose readings but had no tools to capture this for my chart.


Thank goodness I found Glucose Buddy.

While my doctors in the 1980’s somewhere, Glucose Buddy has allowed me to track and trend my readings, make notes to myself about what I ate previously (so I knew what was and was not a good food choice) and to generate reports to show my progress to my doctor.


I dropped my levels from 320 to under 110 in a little less than 3 weeks after I started using Glucose Buddy, if I had paper and pencil, my poor memory and Innate ability to loose important things would have held me back.

Thanks Team!!

Hi BBoaty,

I am so happy to hear that Glucose Buddy has helped you manage your diabetes and improve your health overall. Keep up the fantastic work! - Jennifer

Almost there

I used the program be for I purchased the premium versions. Price and features almost caused me to abandon this series. It is very pricey but the premium features are good. It is a complete program and record keeper. There needs to be a better free version and the pricing structure versus features/functions ratio. However it is still one of the most complete system on the market, but more interoperability people be nice.

Great, But Not Fully Compatible with Apple Health

Since I’ve been diagnosed with diabetes type 1, I’ve been looking for an app to input all my related medical data. Glucose Buddy have been the best one I’ve found and used so far.


However, the application seems to have some minor bugs as it only exports my blood glucose data to the Health app. It is very important for me to have my insulin delivery, blood pressure, and etc exported to the Health app as well.

marvmax ,

Great App

Really great app. I especially like the visual feed back on blood sugar levels.


OK I'm taken a star away I drill mostly like but I have not been able to add items I may not have a barcode for. Like if I have bok Choi (which I did recently) I can out it it once but can't ever find it again. The scanner option works great, and once it's in the search option works great as well but there's a giant hole that I haven't solved.

High Pressure Sales to buy premium

From the very second I logged into this for the first time the application became nothing but pressure sales to get me to buy their premium login “the premium version”. There was even a 22nd last chance pitch to get me to upgrade to the premium for ever even let me onto the application. I deleted the app when the 20 second countdown was done. If that’s the way they greet the customers then i don't want to be one of the customers

Somerset PA ,

New change

Since the new update I no longer use this app as much as I used to. You can no longer see your logs displayed in such a way as to easily view or compare them like before. Adding an entry is no longer an easy task and there are now more steps to go through in order to log or find logs. I like the new look but I prefer something that works well regardless of how esthetically pleasing it is. I do wish they would change that part back.

Goldrrt ,

Time to say goodbye

Not a fan of the this updated version with the new company. Prior to this it was very easy to filter results and at one point I was even able to add a custom tag. Now one has to upgrade to the premium version to filter results! Seriously?!!!? The ability to apply a filter to my results should be a basic feature especially with the new look. It’s not user friendly to be able to find your results. Bye, bye old friend. Time to find a new app.

Aunt Retta ,

Trying to delete

Had high hopes when I downloaded this app. After wading through the tedious process of entering my data, I couldn’t get past the incessant pop ups to upgrade. I click on the ‘X’ to hide the ad and it took me to the upgrade page EVERY TIME. I’ve spent the last 15 minutes trying to find an email address to request they delete my info since I have deleted their app. Still cannot find an address. If I start getting email junk to buy or try glucose monitoring items, I’ll know where it started. Ugh!!!!!!!!

Lydiabv ,

Great App!

I was looking for a new Diabetes App, as the In Check Diabetes App which I was using is being discontinued. I found great reviews about Glucose Buddy. I decided to try it out. I have been using it for a week and absolutely love the ease of the App! It has proven better than what I was using and more features to it. Definitely recommend Glucose Buddy!!!

Summersgirl3 ,

I like this app.

It’s easy to use and carry my glucose readings to my doctor appointments. I also like the estimated A1C. It helps keep me on track with my carb intake.


I am sad that it doesn’t take my activity-steps from my Fitbit. I don’t carry my phone during most of my activity, especially my water aerobics, but I do wear my Charge 3 Fitbit all the time. If it read from my Fitbit it would have 5 stars

Werfgghj ,

Essential App

Been using the app for many years to track my glucose readings. Don’t use most of tge other features as only use insulin once daily. Like the estimated A1c calculation. It has tracked closely with testing. Good integration with the Health App. I don’t like the subscription model, but like the no ads, and realize the developer must eat. Keep up the support.

DChainmaster ,

Always trying to push or trick you into buying things.

This used to be a good app and then they changed and now keep hitting you constantly with offers for upgrades and more paying services, some of which you can’t avoid. Once you’ve logged in a bunch of readings, you can’t download or print out report for your doctor unless you pay. If you don’t pay, then you have to write down your readings to provide to doctor. I’m leaving to find an app that doesn’t lock your information down unless you pay money.

SnoopyDJR ,

Disappointed

So I download Glucose Buddy (free) and start setting up. In settings I sync, or try to, the Health data and the app never, recovers. I see it spinning next to the network icon. Close the app and reopen, no response from the app. Delete the app. Buy the $1.99 app and try the same thing. Sync Health and the app freezes. It’s only $2 bucks but come on, really. Your app does not work and won’t come out of the sync spin. Then the app blows up. I tried to use the contact from the Glucose Buddy site but that doesn’t work either. Disappointed.

EagleGrafix ,

Almost but not yet

I first looked at the app some years ago and chose to not set it up. Now I have returned and setup an account. I do not want to pay $40 or more for a Premium. I do not care for the incessant push to subscribe. I’ll probably look for an alternative if this pushing continues. It’s distracting, interrupting, and very annoying. You asked, I said no but it persists. I know such premium accounts end up being more and more opportunities to shell out payments for more and more.

357 MAG ,

I’m out of here, AMF.

Like many others that have provided reviews of this app, I’ve been a long time user. The new app claimed to be newer, better, easier. It’s not.


For the last I’ve been trying different apps trying to find one that approximated the early version of this app that app doesn’t exist. However I did find one that has many of the old and new features of glucose buddy. This app lets me hide the features I don’t want/need which gives me the old glucose buddy. If in the future I want to add a feature I can enable it.

nursenancy23 ,

Was a Great App!

Easy to use. Love the graph! I can print out my logs to take to the doctor with me.

**ADDENDUM**

I would pay a one-time fee to upgrade, but I never, ever pay for an app monthly or annually. The interface is much more complicated and more difficult to use. And why would I want to share my blood sugars on social media?!?! Scary that this could accidentally be shared.

**UPDATE**

Can’t find the Log. Used to be so easy to see and use. I would pay a one-time fee to upgrade, but a $40 annual fee? 🤣

dissapointed-1000 ,

Disappointed

I’ll a brand new user to this aspect of using technology in my health care. I have read disappointed99’s review and have to agree completely! This may of been a great app,but,

It’s certainly not any more. I was enthusiastic when starting after entering what I consider sensitive data, I had no way to understand how much the developer selling his product for or even what the app could do. I need a comprehensive application but I’m not going to subscribe to an aggressive cash cow, (that this app is trying to be) without sampling the wares.

LJK27 ,

Sales dominates home screen

Hi, I was recently diagnosed diabetic and turned to your app to help me count carbs and log my glucose levels. Unfortunately you are eating up too much of the screen with your sales banner that I get frustrated every time I try to enter info or get a good look at my daily food and glucose entries. I am trying other apps but truly hope you rethink just how much screen real estate you are chewing up..I know I am not alone in my opinion...check your recent ratings!

kclemon63 ,

Almost there

Liked this app enough to subscribe for a year. Many features I do like.

If I could ask for more, I'd like to be able to see a synopsis of my daily macro intake.

It's good to see how an individual food rates, but at the end of the day I'd like to glance at my totals.

What were my percentages of fat, carb and protein consumed during any given day.

Would help with fine tuning.

Treehousemusic ,

Really!

When I take the time to write a review, then something has effected me! This is a great app! I use it exclusively. I only thing I’m disappointed about is the latest update that changed to way information is entered. No happy about it, but it WON’T deter me from using this wonderful app. I give it a 4.8.

ColonelPanik ,

Login? No thanks.

Why do I need to login or setup an account to use the app? Nope nope nope. Never going to allow any health related app make me “create an account”. This app is even worse: doesn’t even tell you WHY you need to create an account. Just wants you to set it up before you can even see what’s inside. Deleted.


Not sure why it gets all these glowing reviews. Maybe the app is nice but people, please. Your health data should never be their business. And if for some reason they font collect your readings, then why need an account?

Radiate77 ,

Not Getting Better

I have used this app for several years even paying extra for the deluxe version. I’ve lost track of the many updates, but a few years ago an update cancelled my “deluxe” status so now I get constant notifications to “upgrade” to the latest deluxe version.


The app was simple and easy to use from the start. But, that has been lost to a more complex non-intuitive interface that frequently changes. They’ve added several more layers to record glucose readings and meds.


It would be nice if we could return to a one and done page. Record glucose and add a one click for your normal meds list for each time of day.


I do continue to use this app. It is the worst one accept for all the others. Maybe I should build my own!

Developer Response ,

Hi Radiate77,


I'm sorry to hear that you are having an issue with your paying status in Glucose Buddy. I would like to help you resolve this issue asap. Please send me an email at jenn@azumio.com and I will be more than happy to look into your account. Thank you for using Glucose Buddy!

sginn78 ,

Sorry

I wish to god I would have used this app for a bit before purchasing the yearly subscription. Biggest problem is when you scan a food it shows everything there. When you go to insights and pull it up all line items are zeroed our. Then if you switch the serving it goes completely whacko. For example it listed something that should be 140 calories as 14,000 calories. The only way I can make it get even close to accurate is if I switch serving size to between .04 and .05.

Den bar ,

Money hungry

I didn’t even finish setting up the app to get started. The app kept asking... well more like insisting, that I subscribe. Apparently the programmer(s) don’t have enough confidence in their app to inspire people to want the “premium” so they feel the need to brow beat you into upgrading prior to even using it. If they don’t have confidence in it, why should I? I deleted it. For the other programmers out there, don’t nag potential customers. Let them try your app. If they like it and see the benefit of upgrading, they’ll do so.

Froghorn5 ,

Upgrade to premium

Upgraded to premium yesterday via App Store and not able to get any of the new features.....still ads, no a1c, graphs, not able to generate reports.... I have not heard back from support... if you are going to charge 59+ dollars, should have been better tested.

Developer Response ,

Hello,


Sorry to hear you are experiencing issues with accessing premium features. Could you please try force-quitting and reopening the application? This will cause the application to recheck your subscriber status and once it confirms you are a premium user it should allow you access to premium features.


Our support team should have reached out to you already, but if not please send us another email and we'll be sure to assist you as best we can.


Thank you,

GB Support

Ms fixit ,

Live with this app!

My husband and I have used this app for years. It’s so convenient and easy to use. My doctor loves it too. All he has to do is look on our phones to monitor our blood glucose history. It on takes seconds to record your numbers and you’re done!

Bassklan ,

Journal bp and glucose

This has been great as an overall logging journal for my glucose and bp. I’ve been able to show my dr my glucose and bp trends. Every now and again I can add in my weight. I wish the food thing had more already put in items - not brands - just items. Maybe it does, I just haven’t found it or it wasn’t evident. So basically haven’t had any directions and I just use it to log.

Developer Response ,

Hi @Bassklan thanks for leaving us a review. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying our app and able to share important trends with your doctor!


Our food database has a large number of food items that you can search for or scan the barcode of. Please make sure that you are logging the nutrition verified items (with the green checkmark).


If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at support@azumio.com!

Janice412 ,

Love this app.

I've told everyone I know about this app. I was so overwhelmed when I was diagnosed with diabetes. After a couple of weeks of trying to figure things out manually, I discovered Glucose Buddy. I can't imagine tracking my diabetes without it now. Been using it for 3 1/2 months.

nhdndjvxjdgnj ,

Good app!

I love this app, it has helped me see what I’m doing wrong as well as what I’m doing right. I’ve learned to portion my meals, average out my blood sugar and pressure and share everything with my doctor. This app is well worth it! Though I hate it wouldn’t let me use my name to send a comment though!

Dionysius100 ,

Good for me.

Glucose buddy works good for me. I do have an issue when trying to put in two slices of bread or two eggs, sometimes it will glitch and I have to go out. And then end up putting the bread in twice in the eggs in twice. Not a big deal, but a glitch in the program. I love the ability to scan barcodes. Best way to input data.

5Kubs ,

App not working

I have been using this app for a while and it’s been great. I decided to upgrade so I could all the features. Once the trial was over and they received the payment for the year it stopped working I can’t get it to open. I click the app help and it says page not found. So disappointed.

Paulina224 ,

Old version

Is there any way to use the previous version? I liked being able to put glucose level and medicine in one screen without having to switch between items

Claraluz61 ,

Way too nosy

I used to use this app and it was simple and met my need, which was to track my glucose level. Now it is way too aggressive about wanting you to buy the premium version and to connect you to other apps ( like Apple health). They want direct access to your glucometer. And they want to know your weight, diet, etc. Basically, they want to get your money and then sell as much information about you as possible. No, thanks. I think I’ll just buy some graph paper.

Ljm81 ,

Shameless advertising and warped Apple rating system

When companies focus more on annoying me into buying their product instead of providing value to me, I go elsewhere.


Apple needs to let users turn off decade-old reviews and show ratings trends. Time and time again companies build a great reputation, then fool new consumers into buying drastically altered products by the same name. My 1 star review and the 100s before mine don’t make a dent in the 10,000+ 5-stars earned for the previous product.

P Carl ,

Great Help

The app has been such a great help to me in my daily life with diabetes type II. Now I have a way to track my blood sugars throughout the day and get periodic reports that help me to check how I’m doing, along with my A1 C score. It’s also helpful to take to the doctors office of the doctor can see it as well.

salad girl ,

Maybe I’m just old

Liked it better before they changed to subscription . The app still lets me chart my glucose which is why I use it. Don’t know why they want my location that’s not why I use the map and don’t need s drain on my battery life .

jhkim93 ,

Recent bug (annoying)

It has been a great app (I am subscribed to it) but recently, an annoying bug is found where the blood glucose level entries get duplicated multiple times — even the old entries that used to be (obviously) a single entry. Please fix this bug as soon as possible. Thanks.

Ellzo7 ,

Needs Recipe Entry

This would be an complete package app for diabetes if it didn’t just use AI food tracking but also allowed for recipe storage like MyFitnessPal and other health apps so I can have the most accurate log of what I am consuming by indicating how many servings I’m having of that meal. This app isn’t truly complete without that capability. I’m better off just using my Dexcom and MyFitness Pal at this point. Please consider adding this feature.

dida618 ,

Love love love!!

This app has really helped me lose weight and get my diabetes under control! I have lost 37 lbs!! I am constantly checking to make sure I get as many steps in as I can. Plus, the link to LifeCoin is huge! I also found sweatcoin. I am using all of them!! It’s great!! Thank you!

AyeCee281 ,

Super easy!!!

I was diagnosed last year with Type 2 diabetes and this app has helped me get and keep my BG levels in check!!! Love the fact that it has the ability to help you track your diet and other changes. Amazing app, glad I’ve got it, it’s a much needed help!!!

App Keeps Crashing

I used this app years ago and went back to it as I need to start tracking my blood sugar again. I was able to use this app for the past 48 hours. I logged my blood sugar this morning and now I cannot open the app. It keeps crashing. I tried reinstalling the app but that hasn’t helped. Thanks god the app info backed up to the website. I’ll have to switch to another app now to keep tracking. I’m disappointed as I like a lot of the features of this app.

stuttlepress ,

Just a money grab

I was going to try this “free” app to see if it meets my needs, but it wouldn’t actually let me use it. The first thing it does is pop up a screen asking me to pay 50 dollars. If I cancel this, it goes to an “are you sure?” page. Cancelling this brings you back to the “pay 50 dollars page.” There is apparently no way to use this app without forking over 50 bucks up front. I wish I could have back the 10 minutes I wasted on this thing.

jogeno4340 ,

Trouble saving medicine

Since the new upgrade it won’t save my medicine. Where you are supposed to enter the dosage the screen goes back to the list of medicine. It won’t stay on the screen to enter dosage and doesn’t show on my daily data.

Bizeeone ,

Difficult to use

I end up with multiple photos of the same entry. When I enter Snacks it insists it is breakfast depending on the time. Won’t reflect the change. I can’t believe this gets a 4.8 rating. Support is nonexistent. People complain about being charged without agreement. The website has 10 articles to help. No tutorial. A1C is way off. GB calculates it to be 4.9 and lab testing was 5.9. Big difference whether normal or not. Requesting a refund based on function. Doesn’t work.

idahobirdhunter ,

Great Ap!

I have been using it for 6 months. Especially like the feature that allows me to scan barcodes on foods that I can’t find in list. My doctor was impressed! She spent a lot of time. Looking at the reports.

Cizzarries ,

Was great...Don't like it now

This was a great little app that I used for a couple of years here. Then they did a "New And Improved." Now there's so much crap in it that it's a pain to just use to chart your readings any more.


To be fair. They've made it so it does more over all for those who want to do more health wise, but I just wanted my simple record keeper and chart

Dede146 ,

Disappointed in Update!

This app use to be so easy to use. Now I struggle with the size and changes. Also the updated version bombards you with ads. On top of it all, it wants you to share your disease with your friends. How stupid is that. My medical problems are private and not to be public. Also, I have an Apple Watch and it doesn’t pick up the exercise I do. I will definitely change apps as soon as I find one that works well with my lifestyle.

GamerHack149 ,

Just Ok

Interface is a bit crowded and confusing. Reports seem buggy. When viewed in app report doesn’t show all tags. When report is emailed (as a link) it only shows one day of data. The reports are what I’m most interested in. The app has many features but it can be difficult to navigate between them.

crowell0306 ,

Easy to use and share with doctors

I track my reading and all my meds. It’s easy to print reports for my doctor and I can also just show the info from my phone. I also like that it gives my average A1C.

Melrn0625 ,

Good but lacking activity sync

I really like this app and use it often for my diabetic patients but it does not connect with my Apple Watch or iPhone health app well enough to completely track my activity and steps. Not as many food choices as my fitness pal. I love the automatic run start on the azumio app.

NSGLex ,

A great way to record my intake

With this app I count my calories and keep track of what I ate and what I haven’t ate. It’s reassuring that I have a record of food intake. So for example I’ve been looking at my record and I realize I haven’t ate spinach in a while then I make some spinach.

Saving medication

The ability to save medication doses in the last update is great except for one thing. I no longer have access to the decimal point so my medication can’t be entered correctly. Can you please fix that?

Glucose Buddy review

Please give option to revert back to the previous Glucose Buddy tracking. After the update, mine logs entries using incorrect times. It’s now double the work. And if it logs times incorrectly, monitoring blood, taking meds, can be detrimental. Please revert back to previous. This new system is less than user friendly and is not what I paid for. I paid for the ease of use with the other version.

Zelda Joy ,

Change the update!!!!

I have to use another app since your app is not working - my doctor is reducing my meds because I’ve been tracking my T2 diabetes using your app. I have not been able to log in the number of units of bolus and basal insulin, so I cannot track my food with my insulin. Please change the app functionality back to what it was. The UI is MUCH more difficult to figure out, especially due to the fact that it is not working.

Developer Response ,

Hi Zelda Joy,

I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing problems with the most recent update. Please email me at jenn@azumio.com and I will personally work with you to resolve the issue. I will look forward to your email. - Jennifer

Easy to use

App is easy to use, definitely can find information without difficulty. Don’t like the persistent advertisement in the middle of my screen that has a X for close but when you touch the X it opens it instead. Sorry I don’t wish to use the add-ons.

dtregay ,

Mostly great, but...

I mostly love the way it looks and functions. If I only needed it to enter glucose results (and I never had to edit an entry) I would give it 5 stars. But dates in general seem to be an issue. When I add a meal, it doesn’t allow me to set the entry time. It appears to use the time from the last entry of the same food. But when I edit the entry it shows a completely different time.

badmanvan ,

Use Everyday

Love using this wonderful app, my doctor want me to keep track of my sugar. This app makes it easy by not having to write them down on paper. Also let that it send all my readings to my iPhone health app.

iamcrimson ,

Great tracking tool for diabetics

I use this app and it’s a great way to track your health or progress. Just recently acquired this app to monitor my sugar since beginning my Ketogenic diet. It’s helped me get off my diabetes meds and monitor my course to a better health

Shan Viv ,

Basics aren’t great

Too much going on in this app and the basics don’t function correctly. Each time I entered my glucose, the app would add a duplicate record. Sometimes it would be set to public instead of private. The dupe never had the timing notes attached to it, which made it easy to delete. All of the dupes I deleted eventually made their way back. Also would enter info (weight, steps) from other apps multiple times. Not recommended.

Developer Response ,

Hi @Shan Viv, thanks for leaving us a review. We have recently fixed this duplication bug, so please update to the newest version of our app and let us know what you think! If you have any suggestions or questions, we would love to hear them at support@azumio.com.

KB-Partha ,

Crappy App

There are so many issues, even the premium version.

1) The support link generates an Error 404. Ao, pretty much you can even reach the developer to submit your problem

2) The integration with Dexcom keeps failing to sync with a message “Sync Failed”. No error or anything. Tried deleting disconnecting the integration and re-adding to no avail. Plus, you can’t reach anyone from support. So, it is useless to get reads from Dexcom 6 CGM

3) Apple Health has no trouble syncing from Dexcom. Upon navigating to this app to see if it can sync from Apple Health app, they provide garbage instructions to open Health App —> Source —> Glucose Buddy. There is no such option in Apple Health app to send data from Apple Health to this app.


Overall, it is a crappy app with no support options.

Jumper54322 ,

No longer worth the trouble.

Used it for years, was simple, fast, kept track of what I needed. Then it changed to the subscription mode and became too buggy. Popup ads, simple info input became hard, pressing saved button diverts to inappropriate websites. Posted numbers were changed on saved. Steps no longer saved on correct days. No longer able to sync info between devices. Looking for replacement app.

ElsieWinkle ,

Making It Easy

Keeping track is easy with this app. I look forward to watching my progress and seeing where I make not the best food choices and how that offsets the glucose level. My dietician loves it too!

JlpMokena ,

I am thankful for Glucose Buddy app

I’ve used glucose buddy for years. It really has helped me track my blood sugars. I tried another app, but this is better and easier. I can get a report to give my Dr, and that has helped in my care.

Super Diabetes app

Easy to log all your information for your record and doctor report. Helps to teach you how to control and educate you about diabetes and teaches you how to control food intake. Highly recommend for newbies.

kra71 ,

The new glucose buddy app

I like the new updated glucose buddy. Easier to use and more organized. However, the choices in the curve (glucose, A1c, food, activity, etc) are somewhat out of the field. They need to be closer together & within the field so that one of the choices can be selected.

Mena14 ,

Excellent

For the cost of a date night for my husband & I, this app is worth it! I was just diagnosed and I enjoy the app features. It keeps track of everything my doctor and dietitian needs to keep me balanced!

Add this feature

Hello

I’m a newer user. It would be great if you could make the “GRAPH” feature work horizontally as well as vertically. It would appear less cramped and give you a better “over time" view of your progress. I tried emailing you this suggestion in the help and support section, but it doesn’t work.

Thanks. Jeff L

Billyf16 ,

Poor

Advertises desktop access. Reality is that feature was discontinued by the "engineering staff" according to a FAQ. Premium is expensive and does not really get you anything more than basic. Their website Advertises "Enhaned Filters" which I am sure is "Enhanced Filters" but tend to not trust companies that don't spell check their websites. Premium function "Filters" gets you really nothing for the money. Wish I could get my money back.

Kambei70 ,

Easy to use & so helpful!

Wish the food database was a bit more expansive, but it is easy to look up & add the nutritional info for items not listed. Overall, I really appreciate the help on carb counting & tracking! Would definitely recommend!

Saxman 1510 ,

A real help.

Glucose Buddy has really helped me bring down my A1C. You have to do the work, but act of recording your data on a regular basis, especially with the app’s “nags” when one is remiss, makes it easier to keep on track.

I have had this free app for 4+ years. This morning I went to record blood sugar and app comes up and immediately goes off. Tried update and still the same results. Very unhappy

imaginethegood ,

Heart rate

Where is the heart rate function now? Can’t find it after recent update. 😢 this was super useful for me as I’m trying to make sure my rate reaches a certain avg while walking. Also where did the stats go? App support link has an error upon opening

MeemsZ ,

Very Helpful - please add section geared to gestational diabetes

Great app very helpful at consistently tracking in one place, glucose levels, nutrition and med adherence. Please add section/differentiated goals and nutritional information for gestational diabetes. The goals and recommendations are importantly different due to needing to get enough calories and nutrition for baby.

AKKWoody ,

Good

I’m doing a lot better eating the right foods. This app has a lot of good features. I don’t know if I’m doing it wrong but it would be nice if I could search by restaurant menu. I type Pepsi I should see all the products and I don’t Arby’s I should see the items they have.

AnnaCJ❤️Candy ,

Connectivity to steps from Applewatch

I’m new to this app, however so far so good. I just wish the app was able to track my steps from my Apple Watch and not just the movement from my iPhone. My activity level shows very low with out it.

Mbobbijo ,

New to diabetes

Very easy to use. Disappointed in the limited options without paying. Have been trying other apps and learning more options without paying; have found other apps more useful. Unsure why the app options that are most pertinent are only available for an ungodly fee. Unless fee decreases, I will be utilizing the other app.

This app is super buggy

I have reported this bug to app support but I had no reply. When I log an event, I always take a photo of my insulin pump screen for reference. Often, that photo is lost. Also, the time of the event often automatically switches to early in the morning. These bugs are super simple to fix, but the app is pretty useless until they fix them. I told the app support folks I am willing to help, yet no contact.

Developer Response ,

Hi ScottAustinSmith,


Thanks for providing your feedback on Glucose Buddy. I'm sorry to hear that you have not hear back after writing to support, but we have investigated the photo not saving issue and it will be solved in the next update. Regarding your problem with the dates/times of events changing, please send me an email at jenn@azumio.com and I will have this looked into, provided that we get a bit more information about your account :). Thank you for using GB!

Too cluttered and expensive

I like the ability to include notes and tags, and the graphs are a good idea but not very useful on the free version. The screens are so filled with ads that it’s hard to actually see much of your own data. The paid version is WAY too expensive for what you get ($14+/month?!). I will continue looking for an alternative.

cu3020 ,

Very easy to use and convenient..

I love the fact that you can record your glucose level and also your meal intake. Must log books don’t give you this option.

Andy P G ,

Great now has DEXCOM interface

It's goo to see Glucose Buddy is keeping up with advances in diabetes management. By importing DEXCOM data it now provides a comprehensive picture of where my sugar levels are going along with a carb counter for insulin management decisions.

Bull Crap

I have had this app for a very long time and now they want to charge me to get my A1C. This is bull crap and I am searching for a new app that won’t charge me. I only need to know what my A1C is so everything else is useless to me.

HeyLee2 ,

Nice little monitor!

Easy to use and full of information! I also gives me a concise and organized place to keep track of all my "vitals"! Highly recommend!

Noodlewoodle ,

Good

I started counting carbs more and generally tracking everything. The only issue I’ve found is the search feature isn’t as good as some other apps like my fitness pal. But the picture guessing is helpful

salvina730 ,

Big scam! Beware

I was forced to subscribe for an unwanted year due to a fraudulent trick by this App operator. Even though I canceled Immediately my subscription , it was not canceled and the payment was made through my Visa Card on my Apple a/c. Support team Danica lied about have no control over the subscription when she did refund me days later to cancel and she did!. This app is designed so that it is not possible to cancel the subscription on

Glucose Buddy

Works great for me! I’ve been tracking with GB for 4 months now & doing very well. It’s easy to use, has great features. I export my data to Excel & report that way. My Dr likes the reporting. All works very well for me.

Block ll! ,

Good news for tracking numbers

I like being able to see both my numbers and a graph.

great help... ,

Type 2 diabetic....

This is a great app! I got diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in October and this app helps me remember what meds I am taking and when. It also helps me decide what I can eat by what my levels are.

Big-Leo ,

Was better!

I really appreciate the fact that it is free, but I think that they are trying to force you into buying the better app.

They are increasing their adds plus they are making it harder to retrieve information with each update.

LBY750 ,

Glucose Buddy

This app has been so helpful in keeping track of my diabetic experience!! It has helped me to make adjustments in my eating habits!! Great tool for diabetics!! Would definitely recommend to anyone!

Bonnieb14 ,

Update

Hate the update. It was so easy before you changed it. Is there anyway to use the old version instead?

I B Van Patten ,

What I need to stay encouraged!

To have a quality life requires keeping good records. Keeping score in your health progress is critical. Your software provides me that option!

Thank you.

Glucose monitor

I love this app. It is so much better than having to write down results & meals & keeping up with my steps.

Using this is just plain easy.


Good Job on creating this app.

DF5812 ,

BIG HELP!!!!

The only thing missing is a reminder that I can set every few hours or whatever to check certain pills, etc.

SarahDag ,

Perfect companion app for my Dexcom

This puts everything I need into one place and makes the information easily accessible. I think it will help me find more balance.

suggrr ,

Don’t update!

While I’m irritated that this app wants to track my location- it’s none of their business- I’m beyond incensed that YEARS of my entries are gone. There is no need for the developers to remove that information. If you want to update this app, write your numbers down with a pen and paper first. I wish I had known this was going to happen. A warning would have been nice!

panthers53_99 ,

Good App

Pretty happy with this app. I wish the reports were easier to print and read. I just had a check up and my A1c was within .3 of GB’s estimate which is easily explained by the fact I don’t test regularly. Good app overall.

kash925 ,

Helping me to manage

Used the app for several days now and find it easy to manage food intake, medicine and physical activity. I plan to generate reports to take to my doctor’s appointments. So far, so good!

Bball0205 ,

no daily tracking, hard to navigate

Free version fails to provide the most basic feature which is having the ability to simply track you day to day glucose levels. You need to wait for a weekly graph. The app is cluttered and seems to always have an add on the screen. For straight forward, clear and easy tracking use the app Glucose.

CPW2B ,

Love it but..,

It is a great way to track my progress and to download for my doctor. My only complaint is the double markings of the results. I have to go back and remove them each time the app sync.

Jyllem ,

Keeps me accountable

Helps keep me on track. However, I liked it better before the update. It seems like it takes more steps.

$$$&6543 ,

Change of format and lacking support

I used GlucoseBuddy for years and was quite happy with it. Then the developer changed the format so that it was not possible to enter decimal points on medication dosages. When I tried to contact support, I found out out that there is no way to contact the developer! Bad form!

Dev purkayastha ,

Premium subscription does not work

After I subscribed, the app now says I am Premium member, but I cannot access anything to record my blood sugar

ehhh bye ,

Stopped using

I decided to try this app because it had more downloads but i hate it. When I logged my food in it would always log it in as separate meals and i had to always fix it. It doesn’t give you the option for med reminders which i really need or to check my sugar. It really pushes you to upgrade. The only okay thing was it tracked my steps.

I got mine! ,

Great app

This app is great for tracking my blood sugars and blood pressure. It’s lacking the basic counters for calories and carbohydrates. If you want to pay for them you can but it should be included! That’s why I gave it a 4 out of 5 stars.

Terriedc ,

So Disappointed

This was once an easy to use method to track my glucose numbers. My Dad who is now 86 has used it for several years; however, the continous ads have made it impossible for him to look at his historical dsta. We even considered premium but the cost is ridiculous. I am now loo k ing for just a simple log that keeps it easy and not frustrating!!

#SoDisappointed

SumoGuy ,

Just right

Easy to use and provides everything that I want in a record.

Deric999 ,

Would love to try it. If it would let me.

I would like to try this out before committing to such a large investment for a phone app. But, with all the premium popups and restrictions on the free version I have no idea. I had to force close a couple of times to get out of ‘upgrade to premium’ pages. Not worth any more effort.

jfm0epz ,

Excellent system

Glucose Buddy is an excellent system if you are a Type 2 diabetic like me . I would advise to all diabetics to get one and you will be super happy to be part of this club.

Manderson41 ,

Easy to use

This app has been extremely easy to use also easy to understand about entry very happy with this app

antfire55 ,

Love it

Have chronic kidney disease I am suppose to keep control not only of me Blood glucose but of my blood pressure and I am so great full to be able to do them both in one app

DB4IP ,

GREAT DIABETES TRACKER!!!

Wonderful app! Please add the ability to track and monitor blood pressure to from blood pressure makers like Withings or via the Apple Health database. Also, I really should be allowed to remove generated reports I no longer need.

ATLBarb63 ,

Easy to use

Easy to use and track. Works on both my iPad and phone, so I can track on either.

El Greco de Toledo ,

Date entry

This new date entry method: I don’t care for it! I prefer the spinning wheels. The first time I thought that something was wrong, because I didn’t see that tiny blue writing at the bottom of the screen.

JaneVandenburgh ,

I can’t use this app since the update

When I got this app about a month ago it felt like a lifesaver, easy to use & forgiving


Now it’s become impossible as the only way it opens is to the screen that says Add Logs


I can’t navigate to the page that it used to open to & I now have no idea what’s going on.


I

Paid a lot of money for this app and want to go back to thefeeling it’s worth it

Rjboy54 ,

Nice App

This is all new to me but this app keeps the records of my readings and can even email the results to my Doctor .

So far it has done very well .

Update :

The old version was very easy to use but this new version is a complete pain .

Do not like it at all !!!

Cinnamon Buns 6 ,

Finally!

Knowing that I have my “Buddy” tracking my diet and exercise has kept me on track. I think this app might be just what I’ve needed!

El Bufo ,

Review

Allows me to monitor my glucose, weight, blood pressure, daily exercise regiment, monitor my calorie daily count, among many other options available.

the bad app ,

This app is not free it should be

This app is not free not a lot of people whom are diabetics. You will have more customers to join the app. So make a free app. I will be deleting this app. Too much money to use. You shouldn’t take money from diabetics not right. They will do better with a free version of the app. There for I will not give you any stars. I will be back when a free version is made.

Ed Plaster ,

Sugar Control

I’ve been looking for an app that helps me log my food and my blood sugar so I can achieve better control

Oaky M ,

Subscription DOESNT WORK!!

I purchased this app subscription to help me track my mothers glucose. I don’t mind paying for something I use.

However the adds are still there and the features are still locked!.

I emailed the developer repeatedly to report the issue. Each time submitting a screenshot of my purchase receipt. Still waiting for an answer.

babysister15 ,

Buyer Beware!

I purchased app, it looked good based on reviews, I thought why not? Then I purchased? O brother, now I feel like a caged rat. No way out no refund I even tried a few hours after purchase. I don't get it. It may be fine for some folks but it's not what I need. I want my money back. No customer satisfaction here I would give 0 stars but ..... stupid app won't allow it

Couldbebetter77 ,

Decent overall, but food entry severely lacks

Probably because of a much smaller user base, but the food entry lacks a lot and would be much better if it sync'd with other more common apps like MyFitnessPal.

phoenix2phoenix ,

Where can auto renewal be turned off?

I’ve searched all over and cannot find the setting to change auto renew. No, it isn’t listed under my settings page.


This is a sure way to get the developers attention. I actually enjoyed using the app.

jremark ,

A Sweet Friend

This app is easy to navigate and logs in lots of data. It also imparts good information about one’s daily care of diabetes. It is a great encourager. I recommend it.

Paula's Pantry ,

Loving this app

Love this app keeps track of my blood glucose and activity and carbs also does a chart best app I have found! No problems so far😊

Bbschoneck ,

Confusing

Couldn’t even figure out how to get the initial setup done. Kept telling me it needed access to my privacy settings but no matter what options I opened up apparently it didn’t like any of the choices I made. Had to abandon the set up. Was really hoping to find an app to track rather than on paper.

A not rich person ,

Glucose Buddy helped me :)

Glucose Buddy is so simple to use, and I won’t lose it like my paper tracker. I will probably upgrade to their premium version later.

Intern7 ,

WAY Overboard

I installed this app long ago. Did EXACTLY what I needed...tracking my glucose. THEN, wow, it became so cluttered with ads, useless junk (there may be some value to someone), that it’s became so difficult to be the simple glucose tracker I wanted that I had to dump it. So obnoxious. I wouldn’t mind chipping in to fund an app that was simple to use, AND THEN STAYED THAT WAY.

CityGirl2374 ,

New Year 2020

Using this app has helped me in the past to help control my glucose numbers through accountability... Here’s to a better A1C year 😁

N3hyb ,

It helps

Anything that helps me is worth it. I may not be taking full advantage of the app now but plan to in the future.

lilgr3ta ,

Really liked it until

it deleted all of the food information I had entered for the day before and set everything to 0 for carbs. Having a list of multiple entries for 0 carbs is super unhelpful, not to mention the time I spent to enter everything on time to begin with.

Acorn2005 ,

Kimber Colt

It makes tracking my numbers so much easier and I especially like the a1c feature,

jack chaffin ,

Change back to previous version

Timekeeping stinks with this version. Was a great app. But much harder to deal with now.

Poop-Stank ,

Pay for everything

The app looks nice, but don’t bother unless you’re willing to shell out $40-$70/month for “premium”. You can’t even send a basic report to your healthcare provider without paying and there’s ads everywhere, banners and pop ups. No thanks.

Pam jf ,

Disappointed

I thought by the star rating and the claim to be the top for 9 years that this would be a great addition to tracking my health. Once I downloaded it and opened it I found I could not use it as the description said unless I bought the premium. I can not afford $40 bucks. Very disappointed.

Reservoir Rainbow ,

No excuses!

Great way to keep accurate record of your glucose levels. It’s there right at your fingertips-blood AND results!

lcastor050 ,

Glucose buddy

Like others I used to use and love glucose buddy. I paid for the year and now can do very little other than log my blood sugars. I’m unable to email my doctor as well. I have found another. lose it. Com. You can log foods including BP/BS/and complete food log. I too am giving up this app. I just wish I could get my money back.

NC_Doberman ,

Great tracking

My doctor loves this as I track everything. As a type 1 this is important to see my treands

miramariphone ,

New version buggy

The new version released yesterday duplicates the glucose entries I make. Have to go in and delete the duplicate each time. Have tried various ways to enter glucose measure but it will always enter the measure twice. Have used the app ever since it was developed years ago.

Dawfen ,

Not enough exercise options.

Needs yard work such as push mowing added to exercise. Otherwise, free version is good. Sometimes crashes when saving a recipe. Reports are not available in free version.

Easy to use app

Very good APP; I will upgrade soon to premium. Easy to use & has a lot of good information to help with controlling your Diabetes.

Bettie

Love this app and I use it every day Are used it every day but mine stopped working I clicked on it it comes up and goes right back off it won’t open for me and my subscription is it up until August 5 I just don’t understand why I quit working I even deleted it and re-download it it still doesn’t work

Modern Jess ,

Dismal

Paid for a year subscription. Had to delete and re-install the app (after the app decided to duplicate every single one of my glucose readings) and now the app doesn’t recognize the subscription. So I’m out $40. You would think there would be a “restore purchase” button, but if it’s there, I can’t find it.

glen1946 ,

Rip off do not open app

These people charge you just to open the app to look and see if you want it... 1 year subscription is automatic and you can’t cancel it. I have no idea if it’s a good app or not . It is a ripoff to charge you before you can even look at the app. Went into it with an open mind. Big mistake

RN Rater ,

Glucose Buddy

Excellent App. Easy to use, easy to store and share information. All the tools you need to control your Diabetes! Love it!

Glucose Buddy

Love this app. I can keep track of my levels and provide info to my doctor. Like new interface.

don,'t like it ,

Glucose buddy update

Although I like glucose buddy I do not like the fact that the pro costs money to upgrade.I would like to use the full features in the app I do not agree in paying for a monthly fee to be able to use all the features.I also liked before the free upgrade I could put in the app what caused my high glucose leval

Toe tapping ,

Buddy is useful

Some user entries are quirky but functional when you learn. Perhaps taking user questions and answering

Nurse with opinion ,

Not user friendly

The older version of glucose buddy was easy to use, intuitive, never had any issues with it. The current version is complicated and difficult to use. They ‘improved’ it into a mess. Wish I hadn’t wasted my money on it.

Jason S Woodrow ,

After One Year of Use

I’ve used this for about one year. It’s quite good. Very thorough and lots of options.

Ezekel456 ,

Great app

I love this app but the display filter won’t work on IPhone 8 Plus. Other than that this is the best app for tracking blood sugar and a1c.

Hervey M. ,

Extortion that’s what it is.

As far as the app itself. When I paid for it several years ago it was perfect, I could track and report

my numbers. Then like most tech crap, it became more like a complicated video game. Now that they

are holding my data hostage, they want 29 bucks for a complete product like it was. I JUST WANT WHAT I ORIGINALLY BOUGHT.

JoAnnMB. ,

Cost?

Great app and service. However I wish the full glucose reports were available for printing without paying for the app.

Jackiemc08 ,

Inaccurate nutrition data

A lot of the nutrition data is inaccurate; even the “verified” items. There is no way to report or correct. The nutrition content isn’t great. Other apps have more restaurant information. That makes this time consuming.

Trucker66 ,

Great App

This app is fantastic and real easy to use.

I never like drastic changes, but the change to this app was easy and fantastic

Ponce St Paul ,

Glucose #’s changed by app

Loved the functionality of the $60 version until I noted that the app was unilaterally changing the historical glucose numbers I’d posted. Weight, BP, and step count remained unchanged. glucose numbers in the 110 range were converted to numbers like 5.6.


This also seriously distorts the A1C calculation.


THis needs to be fixed or I need my money back.

Javilatino66 ,

For the busy person

My life is made so much easier by this app. Plug in your numbers and go on.

GarysMom725 ,

New Update is a Fail

I am a Premium user on IOS 11.4.1. The latest update is not allowing input of meds. The app freezes. I’m unable to scroll. The website support is non existent. Please fix the bug. Thus isn’t a good thing!

THECATGOD777 ,

This app is awesome

I have type 1 diabetes it is really helpful for my family to track my blood so I rate this app 5 stars

Aunt b da ,

Love it

If it didn’t wig out from time to time it would have been rated 5 stars. It’s very convenient with everything in one place.

gmaynetwalk ,

Glucose Buddy is a huge help as I was recently Type 2-diagnosed

Tracks a lot of stats I can generate a report on and send to my doctor.

Keeps shutting down

I had been enjoying this app but I’m stuck with an app I paid for that shuts itself down every time I try to log anything. I would love for the app to start working again, but in the meantime I am totally out of luck.

QueeMJD ,

So Easy

Easy to use glucose tracking. I track to see what foods effect me negatively. I tried several and this is the BEST!

StaceyAdamz ,

I’m not paying for that

Just downloaded the app as a way to track my A1C. I input my last few lab test results and in order to see them all, I need to upgrade by subscription? Just to see a table of info I input? No way. I’m not paying to do that and it’s unethical to ask that of us. App is now deleted

Incontinant ,

Love it!

Been using this ap tons for close to 3 years, and the current update...LOVE IT!!!!!! Love all the new features, love the new interface, love it!

rwjntj ,

Unreliable

I upgraded to the new version in July. Since then I’ve entered more than 200 readings. When I try to calculate my a1c I get a “you have fewer than 9 readings. Try again later. This new version, the first in years, is not nearly so good as the old one I was able to sync with the desktop app.

Developer Response ,

Hi rwjntj,

I am extremely sorry that you are experiencing this issue. We are currently working on a solution for this bug and will have an update soon to remedy the problem.

panda222a ,

I loved the old app, however I don’t like the Bombarding of ads and trying to get me to pay a monthly subscription fee. I am will to pay, but not as much as you want.

Privacy

I really liked this app, I was looking into premium and decided to really analyze it.


I read the privacy policy and saw the words Facebook and Google and deleted the app immediately. Neither of those companies are upfront about their privacy, I understand your need to monetize your efforts but I value my privacy.

App was really nice.

Great way to track

I use this app to track my sugar levels, carb intake, and activity. It’s convenient and easy!

Was great until the war of the ads

I loved it for the first day. It was simple and easy to add stuff. Except past entries. And then the ads popped up. Not just tiny ads in a corner but in your face intrusive ads. Needless to say iI stopped the war in its tracks by uninstalling the app.


This kind of app is mandatory for todays day and age. Limit the app don’t ad clog it.

Dillon;) ,

Used to be good

Like many other people have said, the new version is very disappointing. It used to be free to teach you A1C & many other things. After getting the update it also asked for a ridiculous monthly premium instead of a onetime purchase as most offer.

FAQ

There’s nothing in the app on how to communicate with the when you have concerns. I going to delete and ask for a refund. A few ways to make this app better is to combine about two other apps for my medical provider.

Easy to Use

A great compact app to track all vitals related to diabetes. I really like the ability to review trends over time.

Matt2557 ,

Very Helpful

Really works well for me to record numbers and carb intake! One thing that would make it a 5 for me, would be adding a water intake tracker!

Developer Response ,

Hi @Matt2557, thanks for leaving us a review. We are glad to hear that you are enjoying our app!


If you would like to add a water tracker to Glucose Buddy (GB), we would recommend trying out our app Argus! With Argus you will be able to track daily goals such as water and coffee intake and steps. The best part is that you will be able to link your profiles (by setting them up with the same account credentials), and thus be able to track water on GB once you set it up on Argus.


If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us at support@azumio.com.

Unconscionable that they hold your data hostage until you pay their premium fee to access your own older data! Terrible - I was forced to pay them. Don’t use this app! The only one star rating I’ve ever given.

New Version is a mess

I loved the old version, it was easy to read and manage. The new one is way too busy. Adds Adds Adds. Pay to get rid of them and you still have a chunky interface. Very poor "upgrade" that no longer syncs to the website.

Pin collector ,

Monthly or annual charges? Really?

Great way to go from best to worst. Easy track records emailed to my physician for free now need to be printed out and are no longer free. Let me welcome your organization to the new 21st century economic model that you have embraced by feeding off people with health issues. The new American way. You should be ashamed. I’m gone.

Super easy to use

Great product to help with your diabetes tracking

Adding recipes

I like the app. Except for every time I try to add recipe it tries to sell you the upgrade and you can not add it. Frustrating.

User friendly

Requested developer to add capability to enter values in kilos/grams/meters AND pounds:libras: once’s.

Wish it would also track other vitals that re useful for medical reports

Musterv ,

Disappointing

Small Text size makes this app difficult for me to use. There’s really no excuse for this on the part of the developers. Aldi, estimated A1C is only available in the premium version. There are other glucose apps out there without these deficiencies. I don’t recommend this one.

Wish the Free ver. Would do more

The older free versions had more functions.

Works fine, always quick.

Good Basic App. - Too Expensive to Upgrade

I enjoy using the app and would update if it weren’t so expensive! The update is not worth the outrageous monthly subscription cost.

Does the job

I use the paid app and I am impressed. Interfaces with my other health apps seamlessly.

It won’t update steps from IWatch.

Steps

I enjoy the app but wish steps would not automatically come up. I use a Fitbit and have to delete the automatic step counter every day

A learning curve beyond the more simple predecessor. Haven't figured out how to isolate logs for dr. Like the look.

After not updating this program for about three years, they now have a cost intensive new version which has some of the most ad-intensive screens of any app. You can no longer get the ad-free version: it’s $60 a year or junk. I’m going elsewhere!!!

DBFish22 ,

Great App to keep track of your glucose levels

Very easy and great features.

What happened to GPS feature?

Before the update I was able to track my cycling in distance and time. I loved the voice coach. I now have to use another app to track my distance and time. What happened? Bring this feature back please!

Wanderer ,

Used to be my go to app, but no mo more.

I’ve used the app for years and even updated to the pro verse.

Now I find it is no longer a pro version but a subscription service. What exactly did I pay for?

containeriti ,

Get it!

Very informative with my daily diet and tracking results.

Tati6575 ,

Best for checking sugar levels

I love it. Very easy ti use and keep track of my readings

fishjdv ,

App Stinks

Tried to setup account. First, I cannot enter the year of birth on my IPad because the app screen does not show and it defaults to 1996. You cannot use the app in landscape mode so that I may use a keyboard. The app would not connect to my apple health data. Pretty well useless.

Deb22222 ,

A1c Report missing

I want the basic version back where my A1c numbers were included in the report. Difficult to use with all new added things I don’t use.

macidog ,

Recent Update

I’ve used this app for almost 8 years and found it to be helpful and simple to use. The latest app is not better...like the old way better.

Glucose buddy

I really like it. Easy to keep all your numbers together

Kansas 37 ,

Judy K L ,

Don’t like changes

I used to really like this app. Now there is a lot of info that I don’t want included, but I can’t customize my view to only glucose readings unless I upgrade and pay for a subscription. I’m going to shop around for a different app.

Humanslug ,

Lags freezes

It now takes up to 10 minutes to log sugars because of the lag. & now my scale won’t work with it as before.

Has become a waste of money & a great source of aggravation

I’ll begin a search for yet another app.

qhaki86 ,

Great App

Love the app. Only wish you could add menu items!

Recent Update horrid

Carb inputs hour of last log in not the current time. Makes input 3 times harder. Made two reports and never heard one response back! Looking for new options

Developer Response ,

Hi Joyful75,

Sorry to hear that you are not enjoying your Glucose Buddy experience. We found and fixed a carb logging time issue in the most recent update. If you are still getting this problem, please email me at jenn@azumio.com and I will personally look into the issue for you. Thank you! - Jennifer

Great app

I like it a lot better than the old one.

Updated app

Definitely like the old version better. This version is trying to do too many things. It is too busy. I want it for glucose Not steps or food diary


Horrible since it went strictly to a monthly pay subscription

App won’t work!

I’ve been reading the good reviews and I was looking forward to trying the app unfortunately it won’t load or stay open. It keeps shutting down. I want this to work as it looks like it is exactly what I’m looking for!

Winbenn ,

Fogetful junk

This app is junk. The simplest task of taking and saving data is apparently too difficult. Then it just dumps the data when it feels like it. List 6 months of data. Look for another option.

TrophyM ,

❤️❤️❤️

I love it..it is very accurate. I definitely recommend it.

GSPLDIVA ,

AWESOME APP!

Very easy to understand & use; has all the features I need to keep great glucose records!

Spydergrasshopper ,

Need a new app

I used glucose buddy for many years but the new azumio version plain stinks. Too many taps required to do very simple things. Too many icons and unnecessary elements cluttering up the experience. A sadly poor design. I need to shop around for a new app now.

myrtleturtle63 ,

Myrtle

I have only been using this app for a week, I like that I can record my Basil and Bolis readings. It’s easy to record meals and snacks, and my BP.

Grannykk ,

Needs some work.

I’ve only had the free version for a few days. It seems like a good thing, but I wish it would sync to my other apps, like MyFitnessPal and Fitbit or Runtastic.

nehbowman ,

LOVE the product but...

In the “activity” section, there is no weightlifting option. This is the best exercise for type 2 diabetics. PLEASE add!!!

Mama Linda Rose ,

Useless unless you want to upgrade

All it does is have you enter data, then tell you to upgrade to premium to get anything that you couldn’t get by recording your data in your notes app.

Had to shut my phone down because of error

I was trying to add my Facebook friends when it started blinking and wouldn’t go away.

More too follow

Just only used the app for a few days. So far it works well.

Would love to connect to Fitbit

Pretty good app.

It’s a little difficult to navigate in the beginning. I would love for this app to be able to connect to a Fitbit.

htw1948 ,

Now I have to find another app.....

....because I have lost all my data since the update requires me to “sign up”. I don’t want to sign up. I have enough passwords to track without another to access my glucose. Morons!

Dr. BillyBob ,

Ads are irritating

I liked the app before your constant app on the opening page. If the cost of your premium app was reasonable I would purchase it to remove the constant ads


I’ll find another app to record BloodSugar

So convenient for me to keep track of my sugar level! Great App to have! So handy!!!!i love it!

TXCiclista ,

Cannot complete setup. Insists on Privacy setting I can’t access

Could not get past the initial setup where it insisted on (and would not allow me to bypass) access to step counts by an app named “Argus.” No such app exists and the Glucose Buddy settings had no such Privacy setting

TxBob2001 ,

No Real Support

They changed the app and gave no instructions on how to accomplish tasks that no longer work the way the did previously. Very frustrating.

Developer Response ,

Hi TxBOb2001, we're sorry to hear about your frustration with our app after our last update. Please feel free to contact support@azumio.com with any questions about how to use these updated features.

The update a day ago allowing one to save the name and dosages of meds worked, but then made it impossible to actually log each med when used. Something left out of the update?

Great ap!!

A very good way to track your daily and weekly trends!!

Labboy67 ,

Just an opportunity to charge you more cash

I can record data and that’s it. Anything else that I attempt I get an a1c add wanting to bill me 60 bucks? Um no. As a lab tech for 15+ years I can do my own glucose testing cheaper than that.

Dat Boy Malcolm ,

Good app but

It needs to disable asking for Bluetooth. I only use this app and do not want to use with my phone period.

Hashtag KLOS ,

Beware of Subscription!

I supposedly signed up for a 1-month trial. They charged me for a year. When I found this out (within the 30 days), I was informed by Apple, I couldn’t get a refund! There is NO contact information on the app whatsoever! Losers!

ARBland ,

Would like without adds

Keeps track of daily glucose readings and interfaces well with health and other medical apps

Love it!!

But every time I try to use camara for food Puc I get kicked out.

Please fix.

Ariana Smith Collins ,

Certain meter required

I tried to use the app but it’s not possible since it ask me to connect a certain meter which I’m assuming you have to buy in order to use the app. No thank you

ConfusedGeek ,

Good not great

Not all features work? Trying to limit from display all freezes app and doesn’t show what you want. Have to force quit.

Terry_t63 ,

I may have eventually upgraded, but not NOW!!

I am not upgrading to an app till I am sure I am going to like it.

I was going to upgrade then you changed the look and I decided to wait. After a few updates I am now having to put up with a nagging add tying to force me to update to an expense pay as I go option.

I will not reward this nagging with signing up to pay every month or year. I am going to delete.

To bad it was a 3 to 4 star APP.

I just wasted an hour screwing around with this app. It ask me to change settings that don’t exist in my iOS.

Confusing

Thought I was going to easily be able to log food to watch my carbs and calories to get an idea of how I’m doing. I’m newly diagnosed so just need a little help. Discovered I have to pay for that - disappointing

Developer Response ,

Hi @jjajjasherry, thanks for leaving us a review. We would like to highlight that our (free) basic plan offers all of the fundamental tools for diabetes management, such as carb tracking, blood sugar and medication logging, an automatic step counter, and printable insight reports for your doctor to help manage your diabetes better.


With our premium subscription, we offer even more blood sugar tracking abilities, including an automatic a1c calculator, and custom tags. If you have any more questions about these features, we would love to help at support@azumio.com.

Only worked with app for a couple of days. The interface is way too busy and app takes some effort to learn. Tracking glucose is a relatively simple process. The old adage “Less is more”.

lora1960 ,

Premium is Wasted money

I paid for a year and found the app to be absolutely unusable. There are so many ads trying to sell you products that go with the app that you CAN’T use the app! It’s a scam. I’m disappointed.

A nice program for anyone with diabetes. Easily tracks your readings and give you an average of those readings.

xytraumarn ,

Meh

I used to love this app. Then with the last update it doesn’t fit my screen and the download feature now costs $60/ year. I might as well go back to tracking on a spreadsheet.

Glucose Buddy

I’ve used this product for years and had no problems. Since it’s last update it’s worthless, and doesn’t work for me anymore. I will be going to another app.

Developer Response ,

Hi Milovmf,


Thank you for using Glucose Buddy and I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing problems with the recent update. Glucose Buddy users have written to us saying that we they cannot log medicine or insulin anymore, and I would like to clarify that this is not true! You can still log your medicine and insulin in the "ADD BLOOD GLUCOSE" button on the home screen. Once inside on the second row is a "+ Medicine" section.


If you are writing about a different feature that has disappeared or something else that has changed please write to us at support@azumio.com and we will assist you right away. Thank you!

McMeggieMac ,

Glucose Buddy made a scary situation easy.

Four times a day this app is a welcomed source of continuity, inspiration and a desire to learn more about diabetes. This is the ONLY thing that has been easy from the first second I opened the app. May 2018, my 76yo Mom was at the ER. She didn’t know my name, mumbled and had major balance issues. It wasn’t a stroke but the result of her poorly managed T2D. After three weeks split between hospital and a rehab facility, we were back at the ER due to another episode. She was released 3am on Memorial Day with no access to her GP nor regular pharmacy, with confusing/ conflicting scripts for 3 types of insulin, new meds, and a freaked out daughter pretending to be calm. Desperate for an app that would help me, I found this one. The reviews and easy to comprehend screen shots sold me. Even negative or less than stellar reviews seemed to be constructive and many had replies. During this new journey with my Mom, this is the ONLY thing that has been easy. Having no clue what basal or bolus was, I entered her Humalog insulin and began recording. As things settled down and a routine was established, I decided to pay the yearly subscription and dug deeper into what this app offered. Our GP was now on vacation but called and wanted to see Mom’s glucose levels. Mom was prepared to write it all out in an email and was relieved when I simply sent a report from the app. Our GP was relieved and impressed. We’ve since talked more about the app and both like how the simplicity of entering items on the patient’s side doesn’t detract from the detailed report that he as a doctor reads. As I now know what basal and bolus mean, I was able to go back and easily edit previous entries. The more we use this app, the more we are inspired to learn new ways to live with diabetes. This app is now on Mom’s iPhone in addition to mine. She is actively becoming more involved in entering her own information and even prepping and using her glucometer. Glucose Buddy has given her tools and a sense of feeling in control. As she gets three shots of Humalog a day and now uses a Lantus pen at night, this app has helped to establish a routine that has inspired new eating habits. She even carries her iPhone more now than before so she can record her steps. It’s a win win for everyone! We’re all enjoying a healthier Mom that wants to use her iPhone and has it with her for calls and FaceTiming. Thank you!!!

Not useful!

I’m “pre-diabetic” so just tracking readings and steps without insulin or any medications. The incessant pop-ups to sell this block current data and no way by it. Not worth the time to download this app!

Used To Be Good - Now Just Impossible

This ap, which I have used for more than 8 years, used to be awesome and easy to use. Now I find it way to difficult to do just about anything that I need to do. Here are a few examples of what I’m talking about.


1) The A1c calculator: each time I press the red button at the top which says “est A1c” a message pops up that says “You have less that 9 blood glucose tests. Try again when you have more records.” I test my blood sugar 9-10 times a day. The result of each test I record using the app. When I go to the glucose screen on this app, there’s a listing of the date and time of the test. The old app was MUCH easier to calculate an A1c.


2) Syncing the app with the Glucosebuddy website. This used to be fast and easy. Now it’s impossible, and for me I mean literally. The first time I attempted to do so, I spent a very long time searching all over the app for ANYTHING that had the word sync on it, (after having connected to the website), and finally found a small little button at the bottom of the settings. When I presses it, the only that that happens is that a small wheel appears and just spins, but the app never syncs, and NO logs are uploaded to my account in the Glucosebuddy website. With the old app I could literally upload 1,000 different logs in a matter of seconds.


There are several more things about this app that used to be so awesome, and now are just WAY too complicated to figure out how to do, and I am computer savvy. I actually like the new look of this app. It just needs to be a whole lot easier to use. What I can HONESTLY SAY about this app at present is that if they do not make it easier to use, then after more than 8 years of use, I’m going to start using another diabetes log book that I found on the App Store that pretty much has all of the same functions as this one, with the exception of the A1c calculator. Please make this app easier. We’ve been together a long time.


One thing they have changed that is an improvement is the ability to record bolus records. On the old app, if I had to deliver, let’s say a 1.23 unit bolus, I would only be able to record it as a 1.2 unit bolus. On the updated app I now have the ability to record the exact bolus, and this is a MAJOR improvement. Thank you!!

Great Interface, with a few changes could be perfect

The program is beautiful, looking like it was something that came from Apple. Couple things that if they could be added, would make it perfect:


1. Allow exporting information to excel, or export as a csv file. When sending your information to yourself or your doctor, it is sent in a way that is not easily converted to a spreadsheet. This would also allow you to track your progress over much larger periods of time.


2. If you log exercises into the program, the only choice of units is minutes. So you can say I ran for 30 minutes. It would be nice to make the units a variable and allow this to change by exercise. So for running I would measure in miles. For walking it could be miles or steps... This should be user definable.


3. Should have the ability to filter the view in log entries. So, if I just want to see my blood glucose readings, I filter to show only that information.


4. Once a log entry is entered, it can never be changed. It musr be deleted and reentered. Changes should be able to be made. For example, if you enter the incorrect date or glucose reading, you need to delete and reenter the correct info. This is more of an issue if yoy are entering data for readings done in the past.

All in all, this is a great first step. I am holding out hope that these issues might be addressed in a future release. If they are, I will be revisiting this review and adjusting the rating to 5 stars.

Hervie123 ,

all looks, no substance.

This is the first negative review I write, preferring instead to contact the developer (being one myself). But there is no excuse to charging $5.99 for a clearly half baked app. Money which I just wasted and could have spent instead on diamedic, a competing app done much better. And no I don't work for the competition. You can check my other reviews for products such as weightbot and mSecure.


Back to "Glucose Buddy", it would be OK if it were not for:


1) Entering historic glucose data is an incredible nuisance One has to reset the calendar date each time from the current date to the one in the past. Do that a couple times and give up. (Diamedic has the same problem). I understand that once historic data is entered what matters is current data, but historic data is important too, and the process of entering it should be made as painless as possible.


2) There is no backup of log data. Sure, one can email them to oneself, but how about importing the data in case of data loss? Non-existent capability.


3) The single graph is unreadable. The trend lines are too thin, they disappear due to the strong colored background.


Say no more. And stay away from the "light" version too, read what other reviewers had to say about it.


I will modify this review when and if the above issues are resolved.

A1C Champion ,

Almost perfect

Just to preface this - I have had type II diabetes for 20 years. For the past four years I have been on insulin to control my diabetes. I have also been running a Palm application to keep a log of my blood sugars and, carb intake, insulin use, etc. Given the age of the Palm, an iPod touch seemed to be a good choice to replace it.


I have found Glucose Buddy to be a very easy, intuitive application for tracking blood sugars, insulin useage, carb intake, and excercise. I have corresponded with the developer about some improvements to the program and he has been very reponsive. A number of improvements have been made over the last three releases that have made the program even better.


I would like the capability to back the data up in iTunes (or an Excel file) in case something happens to your iPod or iPhone. I know more releases are planned so I am waiting for the "ultimate" edition.

birdlover11 ,

Love this program

Diabetes is tough, but Glucose Buddy 3.0 makes keeping track of the details easier. I've been using GB since version 1.0. It continues to improve and grow. Support is excellent and they listen to ideas and fix any issues. The new version allows you to choose more than one food or medication at a time. The application also loads faster than before. Now you can enter a numeric value for your glucose reading instead of rotating a dial. Adding entries is quick and easy. The log file has changed and is wider so the different colors for meds, food, activity and glucose do not show and the sorting capability is gone. Being able to sort the different types was very useful to me so I hope they add that back. While the graphs were removed this version, to me the more useful graphs are online. Putting the buttons on the bottom and having the application open to the log screen would also be good. I highly recommend this application. They are always working on improvements and it's still free. Thanks GB!

Type 2 Diabetic ,

This app is great

I am using the reminders functon and the log. Setup was simple, easy to understand and fast. The push reminder function is excellent. I had considered purchasing a seperate app for that purpose and no longer need to.


I have struggled with testing the effects of various foods. I often forgot to do the second test due to my busy life and over time stopped testing. This app makes it easy for me as it will remind me to do the second test. I consider myself very informed about the GI and GL of foods. I was misleading myself. The actual effect was different than I thought. Because of this app, I have discovered that some foods have far more negative effect on my BG than I thought and some that I thought I could not eat are OK.


I have read many bad reviews of this app and similar ones as to why a reminder function is not needed when the Calendar will do it for you. I do not understand that complaint and think it is very misinformed. The Calendar works poorly for pair testing and the clutter when added to my professional and personal schedule is terrible.

Great App! Happy to Have Sync!

I had reviewed an earlier version, and just got the new update and bought the 2-way sync. Had a few problems getting it going, but the developers were instantly responsive on their website forum and it's all working great now. Yep, it's pricey, but as I rely on my iPad more and more, I 'm glad to have all my records both there and on my iPhone. Also, I didn't understand the reviewer who said you can't go back and enter older records. Yes you can. I entered months of records, and update my BG numbers every several days.


From my earlier review... entry screens are easy and intuitive, and I especially like the link to the Internet site and being able to download all my numbers and see them charted. As a matter of fact, after seeing my blood glucose numbers and meds on those Website charts, I could clearly see some lifestyle changes I needed to made immediately. My blood numbers and stability have improved greatly, and I credit this App. Also, their web-based Diabetes Forum is both a great Tech Support resource (the developer is responsive!) and it's really helped to hear others' experiences with Diabetes.

Easy and Flexible with Exceptional Data Interpretation...The Best!

Congratulations on the development of a wonderful, easy-to-use, complete tracking program for those of us with Diabetes. I have been using Glucose Buddy for nearly 4 months now and I wanted to take a moment to say how much I appreciate the application. I am an analytical person that would enter my data into an excel spreadsheet each week and run a variety of plots to identify trends, look for opportunities to improve my control, and simply do a better job of understanding my bodies ability to accommodate sugar. Sure there were lots of programs to record data but those were very weak with respect to analysis.

Glucose Buddy has solved this issue for me....I can EASILY record the data and then access the online graphs at a time that is convenient to me to fully evaluate. Even better, my Doctor loves the information and the format that I send from Glucose Buddy. Thank you for your hard work...this application reflects an understanding of what a Diabetic needs more than any other I have seen.

The Best and Effective So Far

As a newly diagnosed Type 2 I was very much concerned and interested in finding just the ideal app that would let me log my data, show me results immediately and something I could share with my Doctor at each visit. I believe I've found it! This app is not only user friendly but let's me visually see my results. I especially like the graphs, the entries are easy to use and I can take a snapshot of my progress anytime. The "topper" was the website and how I can access it from any computer and I can sync it with my IPhone! One drawback that I can not award five stars is that my web entries do not sync to my IPhone but I can sync my IPhone logs to the website no problem. That is confusing and lack of info when I want to share my data with my Doctor via my IPhone. Log data on website does not match log data on IPhone. On the biggest upside to this entire package is that it is all free both the IPhone app and membership to the corresponding site! Free is good and this app is as well. I will be looking for further updates, I really love this app!!

BunnyDad ,

Was a great app. Now just ok and no support

Update #2: really disappointed in the support. Have been unable to sync the data between phone and computer. No way to back up data to the server. Has been like this for months. No response from app developer. It has good/easy user interface, but unless can back up and send reports to my doctor it has become worthless. Deleting the app.

Update: still like the app but very disappointed that the sync feature between app and server rarely works. Not able to back up the info to the server is an issue if I drop/lose my phone. Also, can't create the reports to send my dr. I hate to say it because I really like everything else, but this a deal breaker for me. Stay away until you see an update. I'm giving the developer a month them I'm jumping ship.

---------

[original post] Recently diagnosed type 2 diabetic. This app has helped me determine what foods/meals effect my blood glucose levels. Simple logs. Simple graphs. Only con: unable to change preset ranges on the graph for what my dr. says are my acceptable glucose level range.

Great helper

Update: 20 Sept. 2014. I have changed my rating from a one to a four as they seem to have finally fixed the issue where the data synching would fail for weeks at a time. For about the past two weeks I have had zero problems with the app. The reason I did not give them a five is that they never answer support requests. They need to understand they are in a customer service field of business, not just an app development business.


ORIGINAL REVIEW:


Easy to use, yet does everything I need to manage my diabetes. My Doctor likes the printed log available on the associated web site. When I forget to print the log for him, I just handed him my phone, and he can look over the logs very quickly.


Update: the app has developed an ongoing and serious issue. The logs will no longer sync with the online data base. This makes it impossible to print out my logs.

There has been zero response to my messages to support. I have found this is a commonly complained about issue on their community forums.

Second Update: it has been several months since the last update and the inability to sync data with the server is even worse. I have now gone over two week, trying several times a day, without being able too connect with the server. I have resorted to emailing a copy of the data to myself to provide backup. There continues to be zero response from support.

While I have years of data in this data base, I have begun looking for a more reliable app.

Rellimlk ,

No Heath App integration

Count and med logging options are thorough. Charts and stats are top-notch,This may be useful for folk with Type 1 diabetes or others who MUST use medication to manage. But the app suffers from not being integrated with IOS Health, and therefore not sharing information with other excellent Heath tools that are out there which a lot of people already use.


If you currently use any other diet, activity or medical tracking app or think you may want to in the future, be aware that this app cannot export glucose counts (or other data) to Health Kit and cannot import activity or nutrition info entered in other logging apps via the health kit. You need to use this app for all logging of counts, food, steps and exercise (which is not nearly as user friendly as apps with food/exercise tracking as main purpose) or you need to manually enter info into this app daily (i.e. Your total steps from Fitbit, walks/runs from Runkeeper or the Apple Watch Workout, and daily carb total from LoseIt...for example). That is a lot of fuss and not worth it for me.


I first got this app years ago before the activity tracker boom and before health kit. I'd hoped they would eventually update with the times, but they haven't. I'll be looking for a new app that plays well with others--a missing feature that is essential in any modern health tracking app.

Developer Response ,

Hi Rellimlk,


Thank you for reviewing our application. We enjoy receiving feedback such as yours in order to improve upon our app.


I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I empathize with the points you mentioned, especially that there was no syncing with Apple Health.


We have updated Glucose Buddy today to allow syncing with Apple Health.


Please accept my apology, and I hope that you will give us another try now that we added syncing with Apple Health.


Sincerely,

Eric

HendrixMarley5 ,

Diabetes helper indeed...

Downloaded this app a few minutes ago and am already very impressed. Easy to input numbers and easy to view. would say that the first thing I noticed was the scroll wheel. obviously I'm a fan, after all, if Apple does it, then it's all right in my book. Another thing I saw was the option to send feedback directly through the program. Keeping as much as possible in the program (as opposed to having to open my own email client) is very beneficial for me so if I have any questions I can just type away.

One thing I wish was that it came in a few more languages (hint hint: developers) so my foreign relatives could download it. That's easy enough to address.

I doubt I'm going to spend more money experimenting with the Paid Apps after finding this one.

nanabugsy ,

Truly Awesome App

Updated Review: Since my last review, which was nearly a year ago, I continue to be a big time fan of this application. The advent of the A1C calculation has allowed me to keep really accurate check on where I am over any given 90 day period. Therefore, there are never any surprises when I go into the doctor for my blood work every 6 months and I have found the calculated A1C results to be nearly identical to the lab. I have been and continue to be an extremely well controlled diabetic of 20 years but this is the best tool I have ever had to assist me in staying healthy. Thanks GB for such a GREAT application.



This is a GREAT application that has really helped me to see my glucose trends over a period of time. When you see it on a graph it really helps rather than just seeing numbers day after day. Great Job!!

BillCreech3Gs ,

Best free app to manage your Glucose Readings, But HATE the ADs

I think that Glucose Buddy is the Best free app to manage your Glucose Readings and better than some of the paid apps. But I HATE the ADs at the bottom of the screen!!!!!

I have been a type II Diabetic for several years and have a Bayer Contour meter. I wanted an iPhone app to track readings so I had the data on a portable device and do analysis and reporting from my PC. Glucose Buddy syncs readings to the web so you can do analysis and reporting from the web. The web reports are basic but pretty good. You can also export to a csv file for further analysis with Excel spreadsheet.

I had been using Glucofacts the free program from Bayer for windows that reads your meter using a serial cable. But the Glucofacts program is old and the new program Glucofacts Deluxe I can't get to work.

Glucose Buddy does just what I need for analysis and reporting. But I HATE the ADs.

Cheers, Bill

Keeping me on track

Having this app in my phone where it is always handy has made keeping a detailed log so much easier for me. Being able to add details of activity, food, meds, weight, blood pressure, etc, makes for a great review with my endocrinologist. I can email her my logs before our appointment. The graph is a great visual aide. And it has helped me see my own patterns which has helped me get things under control.

Could I have written this all down in a notebook? Sure. But in reality, I simply didn't because carrying an extra item with me all the time wasn't happening. But I do carry my iPhone all the time. And this app makes it incredibly easy to make a fast and easy log entry.

If you want to get your blood sugar under control testing and tracking is key. This app can be a great help.

C-Me ,

Easy to use and great management tool

Made it very easy to track my gestational diabetes. With no experience this app was easy to use and learn. As a tool I heartily cite it as the reason why the docs said I had a successful pregnancy.

One thing that would be easier is to have a better alarm or alarm thats tied to the iPhone clock program, so it's easier to test after meals, set reminders, etc. It"d also be great if the food for meals could be programmed or downloaded with default carbs or translated/calculated into carb units (versus grams). Also, it would be AWESOME to have the logs programmable into a database or spreadsheet, so downloading logs can be easier to convert to the format the medical provider wants.

As a free program, this is a great app for easy diabetes management!

Latest version has features I don't use, so I can't rate them.

Wondered ,

Extremely useful and simple

As a "new" diabetic I scrambled to find tools to keep track of my sugar levels in a way that would be practical.

GB has the right combination of features I was looking for. While I use it mostly to track my blood sugar levels, it's interaction with the website proved to be extremely helpful. I was able to bring to my doctor several months of testing so he could have a better picture of treatment evolution. But GB can be used for a lot more than simply tracking blood sugar readings.

The graph, for example, gives me a quick view of how well I am managing my levels. My goal is to remain within the "green zone". Other data can be tracked as well, and it provides a wealth of categories when making entries.

From the apps I checked out this one is definitely a winner.

Notagamerreally ,

Perfect for gestational diabetes

Have found it extremely useful to keep track of my BG since being diagnosed with gestational diabetes. The note part is great because I am controlling it with diet so I can note what I ate that gave the reading and understand better how to choose the next meal!

Since I have the free version I give it five stars. If I were paying I would hope that the note function was more readable after saving ( can't see the whole text if it is more than ten or so characters instead have to pretend to edit and scroll along to see what is hidden), and that the graphs were more versatile: by reading type at a time say, since the fasting reading is a totally different mechanism so to speak than the meal reading it would be nice to see how that is faring on its own graph for example.

p-kinch ,

Wow...had issues, but they were fixed...and FAST...makes this app the best I've found.

What can I say...except Wow. I contacted the developer about my issues, and presto, they were handled immediatly. He contacted me to let me know that the fixes would be added to the next upgrade, stayed in contact to keep me abreast of the progress in getting the upgrade ok'ed by Apple. I beleive this whole process took less than a week. This developer, Tom, not only has the best diabetic program I've found on the App. store...he really cares about how his program fits your needs.

Kuddos, Tom, and Thank You Very Much for the fixes. Now the program fits me...and will fit others too. Very user friendly with frequent updates,

Great app ... really helps me keep track of my glucose levels and my insulin amounts. I recommend this app for anyone with diabetis.

Jimbo1964 ,

Can't beat it for a free app...

I've tried to find apps to manage type 2 diabetes, this one is pretty simple. You have to enter the foods yourself, but only the first time. Slowly you build up a library. I also have a food called "carbs" to account for things like condiments, etc. When you log in the foods, put the carb amount in the name, then when you choose it, you will know the number of carbs automatically because it's right there. I use it to monitor my diet too, so when I log meat and cheese (0 carbs) you have to enter 1 because it won't accept 0.


I tried a few others, and I decided I liked this the best. I don't have UPC codes to scan, this way of entering it once and building a library is honestly easier.


You can pay to add blood pressure and weight, also eliminates ads. Might do that in the near future - if only to throw a few bucks to the company that made this.

The Only One Maloo ,

Logging levels

Controlling BS is challenging. Working with your medical medical is vital for better BS control which require sometimes showing how your BS runs during a certain periods of time, all the time. This app is GREAT because it allows you to put it down immediately, it's put on graphs of your BS and makes a running list of when taken and add notes so when you go to see your physician, it's right in the palm of your hands to help you in in communicating your diabetic needs. Many like myself put forth an effort to keep good records but for some reason, you forget your log book on the day of your appointment, this app will allow you to be better prepared to show your doctor your logs and be ready to get the needed help for making the needed adjustments more accurately.

Koko11 ,

Awesome whole lot better than onetouch ultra smart

I just bought the onetouch ultra smart to keep up and log every little thing but this is way better. I also have the mini and never use it because I couldn't log it in the ultra smart. The founder being diabetic himself is what makes this app and future updates of this app so good. It's great that it is free now as I would have paid for it. Only suggestion would be a food database and place to put total calories and grams of fat carbs and protein. Maybe also ability to log glucose and insulin on same entry if it was taken at same time. It is awesome that it syncs to the website and can be emailed or printed. My doctor is going to love this because I HATE keeping up with my readings but this will make it so much easier. THANK YOU!!!

Piercetd1 ,

#1 fan of glucose buddy

This program has been the key to sucess in managing my diabetes. I have tried several other diabetes apps, this one has it together. My physican and dibetes staff can log in my acct anytime to check on my status and help me maintain perfect control. I would gladly pay $$$$ for this program anyday. No paper logs for my doc anylonger. It would be nice to have an option for a note field only, on main screen to describe health or other items your experiencing. Currently I have to list under the (4) standard options (glucose,meds,food,activity), also if this could allow you to add oral medication with mg doseage it would be great. Overall I recomend this to any diabetic. If I had an option for 10 stars

For this app, I would give it in a heartbeat !!!!!!

GY* ,

CMO

I just wanted to say Thank You!!! Life as a person with diabetes is not easy, especially with Type 1, it is a huge balancing act of not to eat too much, too little, too this, too that.  Physical activities have to be planned out ahead of time and insulin/food has to be calculated accordingly.  One miscalculation in my 5 shots/day and my entire day could be ruined.  But your tool makes life a bit easier to deal with.  I always have my iPhone with me, and don't have to worry about carrying a log book around.  You graph things out, and allow me to dissect the information I've entered - all the stuff I used to do manually with excel.  Now you've made that part of diabetes control automatic and easier - and for that, I say thank you from the bottom of my heart.  Please continue helping us.

How do you do it free?

This is a short update. I'm changing to 5 stars. The graph has been added again. It got to be a hobby to find the best app. I bought and tried a couple more. This free app is the best of any. Very professional. The only thing I would like to see changed is an ability to make changes in data submitted mistakenly. Small problem, huh?


I looked through the available apps and bought two. This one is free and I think it's the best. Once you get to the log window, everything is right there. No need to save several times to record all of the information. It includes the glucose measurement, time relative to meals, and space for a note.


I'm not sure what and where I'm synchronizing, but I don't use that, anyway.


I agree that it would be nice to have a graph. Maybe on the next version. It would also be cool if one could sort results by time of day or time relative to meals. That would be useful info.


This could easily be the best available. Maybe if you charge for it, you'd get more respect from reviewers. Thanks for giving this to me free.

Sparks361 ,

Fantastic app

This is a fantastic app. Extremely professionally done, great graphics and very simple to use. I have had it for several months and when I have had a question or two the support is almost immediate and superb. I can not recommend this app strongly enough. And to top it all off it is free. An app this well done could go for some serious coins if the owner so wished. Mega congrats to him in trying to help us with this disease. The ability to sync the data to a web site is great too. The sync issue mentioned previously appears to be fixed and I got immediate response from their support in this regard. I have seen few sites to respond so qiuickly to a reported issue.

Glucose Buddy...

Update 20 Mar 10: Played with this app for a while now. I love it. I have to say of all the apps I tried (and bought), this is by far the best one out there. I am giving it 4 out of 5 stars though because of the email part of the app. I would love it if there was a way to send only part of the entries and not have to send all of them each time. Maybe send only the last 2 weeks. My Dr. does review the data but does not like getting every entry each time. Just a thought.


Just got the app. It seems to be one of the better ones out there. Will know more soon enough. I would like to be able to delet meds off of the list though. Will be back to update review after I have played with the app more but so far so good other than what I mentioned. Thank you.

Recommend not using Alarms/Alerts

This app used to be great. It's still good but is buggy now. I recommend not setting any alerts or alarms. I set alerts for 8am, 5pm and 10pm so I can take my meds and insulin appropriately. The alerts go off haphazardly (my 8am just went off 15 mins ago at 12:30 in the afternoon). Even better, it went off SEVERAL DAYS after I had deleted ALL the alerts since they are useless! They've been continuing to go off the past 2 days despite my having removed them... so I simply removed the app and will check when it's updated to see if it's less buggy.


And to the reviewer who said you can't enter previous blood sugar readings - sure you can, you can change the time yourself, it simply defaults to "now".


Great app for tracking your sugar - don't use it for reminders about when to take your readings or meds or insulin though!

Almost perfect

This is a terrific assist to managing my day. I am much better at maintaining my log because it's so simple.


To be perfect it would need some changes: (1) allowing the blood sugar readings to be suppressed when looking at other measurements on the graph, (2) allowing partial logs (by date; by element) to be emailed from the mobile app,(3) allowing drug dose values to be entered with 2 places past the decimal point, not just 1, and (4) making the 2-way sync add-on less expensive.


The new ability to enter HgA1c values is very welcome. I've only entered 1 value so far, so I don't know what kind of display it has on the mobile app. If none, then that's another issue. But even with all these issues, I only took away 1 star, because what's there is really well designed.

Great app

As an active 21 y.o. Diabetic, o always looking for something to work well with my lifestyle.. This integrated with the calorie tracker has really helped me as long as I stick with using it... The only part that is hard is finding the food from the grocery store in the app.. I tended to just make them in the favorites list and input the nutrition info myself.. You only have to do it once and then it's saves it :)... It would be easier if you could search it by different categories (for ex. "English muffins" and then all the English muffin brands would come up... If they were in order then you could also use that to find the lowest carb english muffins for example.. Just a thought :D)

Works Well On My IPhone 4s

I started using this app a few weeks ago and also got the weight program. Sometimes it will not let me connect to the server when I sync but it does at a later time, so no big deal. I like the data and graph, but they could be improved. The data should be able to print full comments. The graph should print larger and the advertising pop up should not blocking any parts of the graph when printed. I like the program and use the free app. I don't want the paid app and refuse also to pay an annual fee. I give it a 5 for its ease of use and would like to see these minor items fixed. If they want to keep the fee ok, but one time only like most other apps.

Die O Betic 44 ,

Almost Perfect

Finnally a app that will do all that we diabetics need, well almost. It logs glucose, insulin or meds by type, let's you log carb in take and note what foods you ate, even let's you log activities like work outs or yard work. All that a good dr want you to keep a log of.

Would give it a perfect 5 stars, however. I don't like having to enter in a seperate log for each of the catagories (ie, one log for glucose, another for foods, another for insulin/meds, etc). Would love to enter one log and input all data at same time in same log, but still also be able to see it charted seperately! Maybe an update coming soon. Sometimes entering a note locks up, so needs that bug fixed.

By far best app for diabetics AND ITS FREE RIGHT NOW!

CHANGED MY LIFE

I was diagnosed with Type II in January. After doing a lot of research via books and the internet I realized the best way for me to keep my disease in check was a detailed log system that was easy, reliable and shareable.

I tried 2 other Apps for Glucose monitoring with marginal satisfaction until now. With GLUCOSE BUDDY I am able to make quick entries, track my med, food, exercise, and blood levels. Easily sync to the GLUCOSE BUDDY web site to track all my entered data in simple to read graphs and charts and then share all this info with my physician.

This is the best Diabetes system on the market thus far.... I'd be willing to pay for such a top rate system..... THANK YOU

matthjrm ,

Great app and great support!

I've been using Glucose Buddy since March and have been impressed with how easy it is to use. Today I upgraded to Version 2.0, a much more robust program with a neat web interface, and was completely blown away by the tech support I received. The problem I encountered with the upgrade was not with the program but rather with the weird format my doctor uses for his email. I received immediate replies from my inquiries to Glucose Buddy tech support until my problem got resolved.


I've checked out other diabetes support apps, but this one is by far the best in terms of ease of use, web interface, and tech support. Highly recommended!

Very Helpful App

My youngest daughter was recently diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, and this application had proved to be very helpful in tracking her blood glucose, carbohydrates and medicines.

The online graphs make it very easy to understand her numbers, see the trends in her levels, and know what her average glucose has been at the different times of the day when we test.

The ability to update her log and sync directly from the iPhone to my laptop is great, easy to do, and very convenient.

I have had to learn a lot about this disease in the last few weeks, and this app has been very helpful.

This app is a must have.

Whit M. ,

Perfect for managing Gestational Diabetes

This is a great app! I was diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes and had to learn how to live with testing and tracking very quickly. Glucose Buddy was easy to learn and use. I had to report my levels to my doctor weekly and it was very easy with the reports I could generate with Glucose Buddy. It would have been much harder for me to control my gestational diabetes without this app, I would have never been able to keep so organized. I gave birth to a healthy, 7lb6oz boy and I am certain that has everything to do with keeping on top of my diabetes because of Glucose Buddy. So thank you so much!

RedBearMich ,

Disappointed in paid features

I have been a long time user of glucose buddy, WT Tracker and the blood pressure tracker and when I saw that all had been incorporated into a single I was the ready to jump on that. I am now disappointed. The incorporation was a great idea but the overall organization is terrible. All logs come on a single list I think different screens to track different items would be a much better way to go. And when the logs are emailed. they come up jumbled together. I seriously doubt that my doctor will want those charts.


Alone, these are five star apps but merged together and charging me, Ihave to drop my rating to 2 stars. It is my hope that updates will correct these types of issues. As it stands now, free is a much better set of apps than one paid.

Diemdiablo666 ,

Awesome app!

I have 2 children ages 5 and 7 both are type 1 diabetics. We test every 2 hrs 10 to 12 times daily for each child. This app has made it so easy to keep up with the hundreds on numbers we input and email to our endocrinologist every 3 months. both of my children's a1c levels are between 6.0 and 6.5 every 3 months. This is a must have app if your serious about tight blood control. The only thing I wish is that you could have more than one user or profile on 1 app. I have to use an iPhone and an iPod to have individual profiles for each of my kids.

Over all A+ app.

MagicMacMan ,

Busy, great app

I'm a fourth year student at OSU and this app is great. I can sync all my info between my iPad and my phone which is extremely useful. It also let's me log everything from food to glucose to exercise. The partnering with the calorie counter also has helped me lose weight. Sometimes the calorie counter can crash but just open it again and its fine. I love that everything is pushed online and my doctor can see everything I do. Can very finely tune my pump settings.


Overall great app but not without it's little quirks. I rated 5 stars instead of 4 just to help the rating because of the dumb people who give it 1 star for no reason.

DoctorSaul ,

Excellent!

Excellent app to track blood glucose and medications. Syncs to my iMac & iPad flawlessly. Don't waste your money on the Calorie Tracker option... It's not ready for "prime time"... Crashes and needs too much input if you want to track your typical foods. But, Glucose Buddy without Calorie Tracker is very useful and works without any problems. Makes no sense to keep a paper log anymore!


Version 3.7.0: Calorie Tracker option is gone... Good because it never worked anyway. Newest version seems to run more stable on ios 6. Still a simple and useful app to record basic data to track diabetes management. Highly recommended.

AmericangirlDLM ,

Nearly perfect, and free

Easy to keep track of blood glucose, meds, and food intake. Love the graph of blood glucose levels over time, being able to email records, and especially sync with my son's iPod touch from afar to help him manage BG. Would like to be able to sum up carbs from app. And it's not easy to print/email selected records... You have to share large chunks of data. Also, when we got charged more than once for taking advantage of syncing across multiple devices, the app store folks did not quite get why we were not supposed to be charged! But eventually it worked out. Using this app has given our family tremendous peace of mind as we learned about our son's new diagnosis of type-1 diabetes.

Stephencooks ,

on the right track but...

I've been testing this and two other similar diabetes-oriented trackers for two weeks. This one's in 2nd place...the interface is ok, though there seem to be a few more touches required than necessary for several of the steps. Also there's a 3-4 second loading lag at the start. These may seem small but entering 4 glucose readings a day, exercise record and meals and snacks means 8 or more sessions, day in and day out, so delays are a disincentive to stay with the app. Also only glucose is graphed. Also, no daily totals for carbs. No tracking of calories, blood pressure or weight, which are just as important as glucose.

hild0078 ,

Best Diabetes App!

I'm so happy I found this app. I paid a ton for Diabetes Pilot, which was not very good at all, then found this much better free app after the fact. Go figure. I'm a Type 1 diabetic and this has been great for me. It's really easy to enter all of my data. Everything is categorized nicely and the program is really easy to navigate. It's also great that it syncs with their website, which provides even more detailed graphs and other information. The website gives you your highs/lows/avgs for a variety of different scenarios such as: time of day, meal, etc. This app is fantastic!

Bdihtdeh ,

Must-have for any diabetic!

Before GB writing up my blood sugar, meds, exercise, foods etc with the date, time and notes was a time sucker. When you're checking three times a day that adds up. With GB it takes me a matter of seconds to record everything!


Not to mention that now there's no more notepads to keep track of or store, I can see a graphical depiction of my trends which is super helpful and I can just hand my phone over to my endo dr. and have her scroll through to see my numbers!

This handy app is a big time sanity-saver and I'm forever in debt to the creators for making it!

GB A1C checks out perfectly with lab results

I have been using Glucose Buddy for several months now, and I recently went to my doctor for my three month checkup. I thought to go online and run the GB A1C prior to going in, and also printed the log out to show the doc. I told him what I was doing, and that GB predicted my A1C at 7.08%. The doctor doubted the results stating that patients with my control level and medicine dosage, not to mention my history, are above 8%. Never the less, he jotted down the Glucose Buddy A1C estimate. When the lab test results came back, they were EXACTLY as Glucose Buddy predicted. Hats off to Glucose Buddy!

Bain888 ,

The designer needs to upgrade some features

First thing the designer needs to address is allowing people who weigh over 342 to allow them to enter their proper weight, I stand 6' 8" and weigh 380lb, why would a designer not allow for weight under a 1000 lb. mark just so to allow room for everyone and also how their weight is entered should be keypad entry instead of spin wheel.

Second, feature and more important, would be the log design, it is not as user friendly as other data logs like "Health Tracker" app. It has a very nice user interface.

Last complaint so far is the app upgrade advertises a 50% off sale price but when I go to buy it, it doesn't reduce it.

saraleanne ,

Buggy App, Deplorable Support

This could be a good app. Entries are easy to make and logs export to email in a decent format, although the inability to select a date range for export is clunky.


The biggest problem with this app is that it is almost ALWAYS unable to sync with its server to upload your entries, and customer support is completely nonexistent. I have used the app for over a month, and it crashes and/or fails to sync more than 20 times a day. In fact, I often go for days without being able to sync even once successfully. Numerous emails to customer support have NEVER been answered in any way, not even by a patronizing automated system, and no noticeable steps have been taken to correct the bugs. Though I had intended to do so, at this point I won't buy the full version merely on principle.

H Ohio ,

Disappointed

With the number of stars this app has, I expected more. I guess I should have read more reviews first, but everything I entered on the computer doesn't come up in app, which also means if I email my logs to myself/ my Dr from the app, none of those records are included. Debating deleting them all from the computer & manually re entering them in app.


Also, constant problems getting the app to connect to the server. So my logs in my phone won't appear in the PC version, & again I can't send a complete log to myself/ my dr. I have to test 4x a day, and record all food eaten/activity, so I'm trying to sync about 20 times a day, & often can't sync for about 36 hours.

Irregular mom ,

Ease and graphs are a plus!

A type II diabetic for 8 years, I was beginning to get lazy about taking my readings. My last doctor visit proved how dangerous this had become. My A1c level had risen significantly. Shocked by how much in as little as 3 months, I quickly went looking for an app to help keep me on track. I really like the ease of entering in my readings and the correct descriptions that correspond to each. It has worked because it has provided a better visual of how I am doing and has encouraged me to continue to stay in my correct range. Ease and graphs are what make this app a good choice.

Ted Ninja ,

Worthless

I used to have this app a few years ago on my old iPhone. Now returning to it there are a lot of features that were taken out and I don't want to pay for them when I already had them for free.


These included setting up alarms to remind me to take my insulin and check my BG afterwards (manual entries would trigger these alerts) and ACTUALLY SYNCING MY LOGS both ways with the server. These two features along with a few others that are now pay to use only (and some may no longer exist at all) are what keep me from using the app anymore. Loved it when the app was useful and then it stopped working after an update they pushed out and I quit using it and soon after found better on a droid. Now that I am back again to iPhone this old gem has lost its shimmer.


Find something else.

eneetra ,

Almost there...App extras don't work

I've been using this app for 2 weeks now. While it is great to track blood, food and exercise...there IS NOT a seamless integration into calorie track app, nor printing report for doctor, nor setting up notifications. If the developers actually listened to the comments and questions posed by the users perhaps they could update their user interface and user experience and make this a more user friendly app.


Logging is easy. But exporting data or using alerts or syncing with other app isn't.


I've left messages to the tech team and I'm just pointing to a blog for the answers so their support is lacking.


A few tweaks and this could be the best app going. But at this time, I still take screen snaps from my iPhone to send to my doctor. There are other apps that let you email the report to the doctor right from the app. This is NOT possible here. You have to go to website then print. Or take screen snaps and email to the doc which isn't ideal.


I still haven't figured out the alerts nor the other benefits they speak of.

Netraven001 ,

Great program!

Out of the free logs, I like this one the best. However, my son was only recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, and his bgl tends to go all over the place, especially when he doesn't keep track of things as well as bye should! The biggest detractor from this program is that it used the "dials" in order to enter numbers. A key pad would be so much easier, and it wouldn't have a 400 level limit on bgl. The only other "opportunity for improvement" that I see, is each log entry should be entered on its own line when exporting the log. As it is now, I have to copy and paste it into a text file on my desktop in order to manually review the logs.


Thnk you!

Chigaro ,

Great Application!

I've been using this application for about a month and it's a great way to track the different variables that impact your glucose values. The web sync is especially useful if you want to use the data in other ways, it's all there and you're not dependent on the iPhone to keep the data. I had to reinstall programs on my iPhone and tried to access the web, had some problems, but customer support had the answer almost immediately.


I don't rate many apps, but this one is actually very good.

walkerjody ,

Great update but needs charting back.

I've been using this lil app for the past year, since I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. It's a life saver, literally. The updates recently made to the app are awesome, they've completely revamped the entire interface and everything's works great! However it is now missing the key charting feature. I understand some things might have needed to been cut with the entire overhaul, but this charting feature was an excellent way for me to discuss my glucose levels with my doctor during visits. Please bring this feature back. Otherwise a perfect lil app!!!

Angrychrst ,

Bring the graphs back!

I have loved this program and have even prefered it over one of other apps I paid for. But without the graph function it becomes worthless for me even my doctor prefers the graph as it is easier to look at a trend then indvidual logs. Nice look on the new interface though taking away features for a prettier app does not help. Put the graph back and easily a 5 star app again.

*Update*

Witht the graphs back this is once again the best app for blood sugar tracking. Thanks for the great job on a free app none the less.

dans87 ,

Very helpful!

I used to record all my bg results, meds, food, etc. in an Excel spreadsheet, but this is much more comfortable/mobile. No more need to scribble my notes on a piece of paper until I get to my computer, heh.


Also I'd like to thank the creators of this app for their generosity in making the app itself free as well as the synch feature free!


Just a few suggestions:

1) Daily summary would be nice: bg before/after each of the 3 meals, bg after waking up, bg before bed, what food was consumed, how many carbs. Some sort of an easier interface to read than the logs window.

2) ability to set your own target bg range (to be highlighted in graphs)

3) ability to set when a day ends and when one begins. For example, I often go to sleep after midnight, so any logs I add after midnight will count as part of the next day, which is misleading when looking at the logs.


Overall great, useful app. Really helps in my daily routine :)

Wife21&Mom23 ,

AWESOME!!!

This app is why I have an iPhone. I love this app and I've only been using it for the past three months. One drawback, when you email numbers to the doc, it sends them ALL. It would be awesome to send a range (1 week, month, etc). My doc informed me she printed 25 pages of my blood sugar numbers and asked if I would do the slightly annoying task of deleting some of the old numbers. Wouldn't be too much of a problem, but I'm emailing twice a week as I'm getting into the last couple of weeks of my pregnancy. All together this is great and has saved me time and money already!!! Thanks!!!

The real Neil London ,

MUST HAVE FOR DIABETICS!

I love all the features it has! I love the graph the most. I can get a good idea of what I run BG wise. Also love the note section, inputting my sugars and insulin in the same log and having it sync to an online account that can give you an idea of your A1C and a more in depth look at your trends. I just wish you could sync from a computer to device and not just visa versa. Also wish there was something that gave you a number for you averages and not just a graph. But over all a MUST have for all diabetics! No more pen and paper and no more running out of space writing when logging! ;)

Asansone11 ,

need bug fixes

This app works great and seems to be the best out there. However, there are many bugs that need to be fixed. I paid for the weight function however I only can enter that through the iPhone not the website. The graph display on the iPhone allows only one add-on to be displayed even though website indicates multiples can be displayed. The print out all of the graph on the website is in accurate and you cannot change the defaults for what is displayed. Moreover, the developer is never answered any of my questions. I have had this for a few weeks now and the jury is still out as to it's worth of $6.99.

iShubes ,

Should be a 5-star but...

Plain and simple interface, but I'd love to have a field where I could input (and SEE!!!!) the meals I'd eaten. As it is, there IS a "Notes" field, but it's one tiny, narrow box that doesn't expand; you can enter data endlessly, I suppose, but it's impossible to read. Other than that one complaint, GB is a simple, easy-to-use straightforward app with a lot of features. One HUGE plus: almost all features are available without needing the Pro version, and even without the Pro version, you don't get slammed with stupid ads or requests to upgrade. Highly recommend this one. 👍🏼

KSSV ,

This app is a lifesaver!

My son was recently diagnosed with type one diabetes, and this app has made our life much easier. My wife and I can enter his numbers wherever we happen to be and then sync them to the website, so we can be aware of what's happening to him whether we are with him or not. This is especially helpful when dealing with transitions from one caregiver to another. The ability to print reports for doctors and send them electronically as well is also a huge asset. I highly recommend this app. It is the best one I found.

markjohn1 ,

The Best I Have Used Personally!

I have used many apps since they have come oout and Glucose Buddy beats them all for ease of use and for information gathering. I love the way it syncs with the desktop and my I Phone and I enjoy being able to e-mail results to the Dr's as they are warranted. As a diabetic who checks his blodd 6 to 7 times a day this tool is invaluable. Thanks to the team of Tom and Matt and the rest of the crew for making this product number one in the eyes of myself and many of our community members at Diabetic L.I.F.E. *WON*.

Great App/Platform For: Logging/Extrapolating Carb/Insulin/BG/Activity Data

I'm fairly tech savy and was amazed after Dx in 2008 at the dearth of usable software available on OS X or the iPhone platform for diabetic data logging and extrapolation. GB is easy to use, syncs to a web site that makes using and viewing the data meaningful, has some some cool graphing tools and is free to boot.


KUDOS the the gentleman who have developed this app. They are committed to helping people and walk the talk by giving away an app. that I would gladly pay $10 for and I don't buy many $3 apps to boot, lol!

Dboyes99 ,

By far the best diabetic management app so far

I've looked at EVERY diabetes logging app on the iTunes store (to the tune of about $25), and this one is by far the most comprehensive and easy to use. The ability to record food and glucose AND medications AND activities all in one place is well thought out and really slick. The only part I would improve is the documentation of how the event alerts work -- it's not too hard to figure it out, but as well designed as the rest of the app is, it's a rough edge that really doesn't need to be there.


In any case, an impressive piece of work. As a new diabetic, this looks like it will help a lot.


darsen003 ,

Glucose Buddy is Great

I've been using the Glucose Buddy ap for the past month. It have been very easy and convenient for me to keep track of my blood glucose levels and activity. I especially like the graph function that gives me a visual way of evaluating my glucose levels. I also like the way it uploads to the website where I can view other information.


The support is excellent. I sent a request and got a response within a few short days. I really appreciated that.

EJ'sMiMi ,

Can't live without it!

I am so happy that I found this app admit makes my life so easy and accountable. Diabetes is not easy no matter what type you are and being able to print off everything you and your Doctor needs is awesome. If you don't think this helps to keep you on track try not logging BS and food for a week and see. Just saying as I did and wow not a pretty picture. Couple this with " Lose it " and you will have a perfect marriage. Please keep up the food work.

pkesner ,

Love it

I had the old product and it was easy to log items, but this new product is above and beyond what I ever expected from this application. I can read results from my iPhone and sync with their system so I can check it any where. The comparison between this version and the previous one is unbelievable. If you need a tool to help track, this is the only one you will need. Only thing i wish they'd add is the opportunity to add A1c values when they are tested. Go for this one.

Chambgl ,

Could be better

I do like this app but think it could be improved.


1. Needs to be able to go landscape on the iPad to get wider picture

2. Needs the graph to have the option of being able to present any of the log items as bar or line. As I only weigh once a week it makes it difficult to see the trend in bar version and I would like to be able to visually compare lines for weight and glucose score or blood pressure to see correlations easier.

3. Would like to be able to scroll back further than the current circa 2 months

BootheOne ,

Easy. Simple. Now works. I like it!

I just downloaded GB. Looked interesting. Will not let me set my meter's name. It keeps "selecting for me". Then, keeps saying my Login is incorrect every time I go to a different screen. I'M ALREADY logged in! Seems to have a lot of glitches for such a highly reviewed app. I'll try it over the next few days to see if I can actually get it to work. Designer needs to monitor how app is doing.

Been using GB for many weeks now. Easiest app of any type! Keeps me apprised of readings & meds. I do forget occasionally when I've taken med. Just check GB on my iPhone! Good job!

Gestational Diabetes

Just diagnosed with gestational diabetes and have to test 4x per day. My doctor gave me a sheet to write everything down on but found this app to be easier for me during the day while at work and away from home. I just write everything down on my doctors sheet at the end of the day. I would like to be able to set some parameters on the graph. I'm also having trouble loading my meter brand/info - app always shuts down when I try. Otherwise a great app for keeping basic info on my readings - very happy with it and definitely recommend.

Kayliesmom35 ,

Doesn't actually do everything it says it does..

I was actually impressed with this app. I'm glad I waited to upgrade to the $7 version, as it is missing features that they advertise it performs. I would have rated this 5 stars if it actually had reminders/push notifications like it says it does. Being the parent of a newly diagnosed type 1 diabetic teenager, I was looking forward to her being able to use the reminders so she wouldn't miss testing her sugar or taking her insulin. But that feature does not exist like the app states it does. So for now it only gets 2 stars in my book and I'll find an app that performs its stated features... with reminders.

Momoftaylor ,

Love this app!!!!

I love this app. My 14 year old son has Type 1 diabetes and this has helped me greatly with keeping up with his blood sugar. I could never get him to write his numbers down. Now I just ask him each night and add it to my phone. He is getting an Ipod touch for Christmas. I hope by getting this app for him, he will record his numbers himself.

I had a few suggestions that I e-mailed to Tom and I had a reply the same night. He said they are working on some of them now. If those changes happen, I will give 5 stars.

swep ,

What a relief!

Thank you for this app! I was just diagnosed two weeks ago, I was so excited to see this app for my iphone! I always have my phone with me so this is perfect to be able to log everything in! I was trying to use a carb tracker as well but found that putting everything into this app and then using the graphs on the website work wonderfully! Especially for someone who is just learning! I am much more likely to type something into my phone as opposed to write it down! Thank you so much! :)

well.ok.then ,

WOW, thank you!!!!

Have had app for only a few days & wow, you guys are life savers!!! If you are a diabetic and don't have this app you are not managing your diabetes the way you could. Its FREE, everyone who is a diabetic knows how hard it is to give your doctor the right information, no more excuses, no more pens, no more paper, get this app & let it do it's thing... easy to use, makes tracking my day to day diabetic life easier...only one wish, PLEASE, update to include a oz. to gram conversion for food inputs, so much easier to find portion sizes in oz., other than that, best app on MY iPhone

There's An App For That...This One!

As a new diabetic, I was overwhelmed with stuff to keep track of; but as a computer teacher, I joked to my wife that there must be an app for this, and then I found Glucose Buddy!


Not only does it allow me to keep track of all of the "normal" things like glucose and A1c, but the notes part lets me keep track of which finger I last used for testing and which leg I last injected myself in.


I used to use a little calendar for this, but not anymore.

best geeks ,

amazing software

this software is an answer to prayer for a parent of a 8 yr old type 1 diabetic. the ability to sync up allows his mother to keep it up to date when he is with her. no need to hand over paper logs etc. I truly believe this was written by a diabetic as there were no stones left unturned here. everything was thought of. I admit that I downloaded it because it was free, but all the upgrades for in app purchases were worth every penny. I highly recommend this app!

citellus ,

Needs some work

Although Glucose Buddy has done a better-than-average job providing information categories to track, entering data is VERY awkward and poorly designed. Examples: If you want to transfer your data from software in another platform, for instance, you will need to do it all through manually; each date must be entered by spinning a wheel with no separate 'year' component. Entering the meter reading itself requires re-selecting the field after choosing a description for that event. Programmers could easily make this a much more user-friendly app.

Domashnia ,

Very helpful

I've been a diabetic for 2 years now and I never even checked my glucose until my son was born this past November. I realized that I needed to start taking care of myself. This app has certainly helped me gain better control of my glucose and time my metformin doses around my highest and lowest glucose times. It's super easy to use! You can make notes , change times and dates, track weight, and view a linear graph showing your progress. TOTALLY WORTH THE DOWNLOAD!!!!

I hate to be that guy but the support is awful and they sell your info to marketers

This is new to me. I think GB appears to be a fairly decent app, but I have no experience with others.


However, in order to make use of my logs, and to transfer them to the new phone that I expect to have shortly, I need a Glucose Buddy account. To have a useful Glucose Buddy account, they need to verify your email. And for whatever reason, that appears to be impossible to obtain.


I tried setting up an account and NEVER got an email verification notice. I have sent three emails to support, and heard nothing. Oddly, I tried filing a "lost password" notice, and got automated emails, but those apparently don't count as email verification.


So, before I end up with a lot of info I have to transfer by hand, I'm going to have to switch to another app. I'm just thankful I didn't get the "pro" version.


One other item: When you create an account, apparently GB sells your info to marketing companies. They are up front about it - which is great. But if that bothers you, keep looking.

Very poor, and I'm very sad.

I first got this app a year ago and it was the best thing ever. I use this app every day keeping a measure of my blood glucose. But this year periodically it would not work, it would always give me a message saying that it could not connect to the server. At first it was every couple of days and then those days turned into more days in succession. I then sent a email to support but got no answer or response. Now it will not work at all I uninstalled it and reinstalled it still will not connect I added a new one it worked twice that was it so I will not be using this product anymore it's a shame.

Sometimes you find a gem

This really does feel like a buddy. The care and thought that went into making this app speaks of the developer's desire to fill a gap with a product that exceeds what one would come to expect to find in the App Store. When I say that, what I mean is that we've all went looking for a particular app with the hopes that we /might/ be able to find something remotely useful and settled for mediocrity. I didn't find mediocrity... I found a buddy. (How sappy was that, eh?)

daddioPWG ,

This app has helped me emmensly

This app just keeps getting better and better. I have used this app since February 2009. It has an intuitive and organized interface that's easy to use. I have much better contol of my sugar levels because of this app. My doctor loves the level of detail that was otherwise missing in the handwritten logs. Support has gotten back to me on any issues that I have had. Keep up the great work and thanks.

Bkincaid ,

Just what I was looking for

Glucose Buddy is just the kind of iPhone-based diabetes log I was looking for. I have tried Islet and Diabetes Log; Glucose Buddy is much better. I like being able to do custom notes to all entries. My life is not routine, so it's nice to catch the nuances of each situation in my notes. Syncing iPhone entries with my online account is awesome. People typically don't just use their iPhone or pc.. The added flexibility of reviewing and editing on both devices is key.

Updated from 2 stars to 4

Awesome note from tech support. It did not solve my particular issue, however at least there was an explination. And answered in on a Sunday, less than 12 hours from the time I sent the message.


Apparently, they use the iphone's UDID though, (which is a fault that a lot of iphone apps have) so you can't use this on more than one phone and expect to have both phones having the same data.


The one way sync was apparently how they designed the app. I hope there are plans to change that in the future.


If you plan on using this on one phone and never getting a new phone again, and hopefully never breaking your phone, and also never adding logs via the web interface, then this would be the perfect app for you.


As it is, it doesn't solve my particular issue, but on it's intent, it's a great app.

Mike Retsoc ,

Had to delete

Could not get it to web sync. No reply on that issue from tech support. I like the program, but has several shortcomings (see comments on deleting meds, too-cumulative daily average info, etc.) that have not been addressed. No updates of late. I think the money for app development has gone away and the program is "matured" to where there will be fewer improvements. That said, it's the best free app I found and I liked it. But I seleted it today and went with a $6 paid app that does all this and more including nutrition info. Best of luck.

Ljoydam ,

You better get back some of the old functionality

I gave the earlier version 5 stars. It was a fabulous app and very flexible. The new version: 1) no graph; 2) you can't really see the note entry because it's all squished in one small space now; 3) more steps involved with entering data into the log - it was good having the log on the first screen. The only totally new function (other then a lot of rearranging) is the learning module which is complicated and not very helpful. I could match thing up before with the downloaded file with more ease than the rigid function that appears to be sponsored by a pharmacy.

BB-Brain ,

This is a no-brainer!

What better way to see how you are doing EVERY DAY! I have been faithfully entering my levels every day for the past 9 months. Every so often I "read the graphs" and it really helps me to keep on track. I can tell when I am anxious, or sick and can leave notes to myself to describe where I am. I show my doctor as well. With medication, my levels fall into the pre-diabetes range and I keep to PORTION CONTROL as well. My A1C is at 5.9. That's great. Love this app!!!

LindstromKen ,

75% of the needed solution.

When I learned that I was diabetic, I went searching for the one killer app that would track my glucose, activity and food intake, and Glucose Buddy does this well. I like the fact that I can dump the results into Excel and create my own reports, but the missing item here is a food database to enable quick recording of caloric/carb intake. I use MyFitnessPal for this purpose. Together the two apps fit 100% of the need. Integrating the two or developing the functionality inside GB would be even better.

btobg ,

Nice and simple

Easy to use. I like that. But what these apps are all missing for me is the ability to alert me when it's time for my meds. Especially needed is for the meds that need to be taken before a meal. The alert should persist until I clear it, and be able to sleep if I'm not ready and tell it to. Most of all, and the hard part for the developers, is that it be able to "wake" my iPhone when on standby, but on. Right now I'm using the phone's "alarm" feature, but that's pretty awkward.

Cjwilliams4th ,

Effective and Accurate According to My Doctor

This app is highly effective and accurate. My doctor asked me to check my blood sugar and a minimum of twice a day, at least three times a day and the check once before a meal and once after email to see how it affects my blood sugar. He wanted to go through the data with me at my next appointment, and the south made that very easy because I can go online and print out my chart.

Janchicago ,

Perfect for tracking, sending logs

I developed gestational diabetes and this app has been fantastic for keeping a log of my daily readings. Plus I can email the log to my doctors. I use it along with Daily Carb - that app has been good for looking up carb values of food. It'd be great if a feature like that could be incorporated into this app. And it'd be even better if I could plug in an amount of carbs (say 15g) and a food (say quinoa) and have it tell me how much I could eat.

Diabetic iTuner ,

Help me get healthy

I contribute much of my A1C lowering by .5% to this application.

I think the thing that sticks to this program over others is the stability.

I never lost any of my data and I just met wth my doctor and he's so happy I started using this.

Did I put a lot of effort into controlling my diabetes these last two months? YES

But I probably would not have done that without this program. Apple-l ike application...honestly, thank you.

Debbie L. J. ,

Thank You

For those who are new to Diabetes they have yet to find the biggest problem, getting back on the wagon when you fall off! Logging (through a windows app) all the time kept me going when I first encountered this monster, my BG, food and weight, but when I went on vacation and this wasn't possible it was hard to keep it going!



I'm back on wagon and intend to stay there with the help of your wonderful app!

zerpy69 ,

I want the old version back!!!

I loved this app and was excited to see the update. The facelift is great and keypad entry was essential and really makes log entries much faster. But bring back my graphs and ability to filter the log by entry type!!! The graphs were my motivator and what set this thing apart from a paper log for me. I loved to be able look at the graph and see the hi/low/avg plotted - really helped me keep tight control.


If I have to go to computer to look at graphs I'd reather use excel then. Please bring back the graph and this will be a 5 star app!!!

Gryphontamer ,

Excellent app - very impressed

This app does almost everything I want it to, and the only thing lacking - a sync between the web and the iPhone so that both sides have all information, whether entered in the web portal or on the iPhone - is in development as we speak.


Additionally, I used the GBA1c to check my A1c the day before I had an HbA1c. They match to the tenths place - GBA1c said "5.44," and HbA1c was 5.40. GREAT work, folks. I couldn't ask for better.

Ken Purcell ,

Yeah it free but at what cost?

I downloaded and used this application along side with three other free applications. It is easy to use and pretty straight forward ap. It does what it promises but the big issue is sharing your data with unknown 3rd parties. I would probably be OK with that if they named who the 3rd parties were and what they are doing with the data. If they data was used for improving treatments or such but I pretty sure it just for marketing purposes. It would be a nightmare it your insurance was qualifying you diabetes compliance.


Ended up buying and using a paid application that meets 90% of my needs for $2-$3.

Coach7227 ,

It's Great!

I've had Type 1.5 for 20 years and haven't been the best about testing frequently enough. I also could never be bothered with handwritten logs. Well this app has changed everything! I'm checking 4-5 times a day now and thanks to the log I'm able to finally bolus properly for meals. My graph also shows how much better my control has become in just 2 weeks. This app is a must!

JudoBear ,

Just what I needed

Great App! I updated to the premium package because I was tracking my Blood Pressure and Weight in the activity section, it is very nice to have the BP and W plot capability in one package. Recently I when on line to print out my three months results for my doctor's visit. My Doctor can now get a plot to include in my records and has a better since of my progress, I will continue to use this tool, it is just what I needed, thanks

BABIEGURL619 ,

LOVE IT!

Best diabetes app ever! Very easy to use, perfect 2 print out and take 2 doctors appts, everything i need is all rite here! Thnx!


Things 2 fix would b capitalizing the 1st letter in notes, and a version that works on the iPad. And also, a way to select which logs u want 2 print and email instead of it wanting to print and email ur ENTIRE log book. Its pretty frustrating and time consuming.


Other than these issues, its a great app. The best one for diabetes logging that ive used and seen.

Jose Brenes ,

Very friendly app... But a few changes could make it great!

I like this app a lot and believe me, I have tried many. I like that entries are very easy to make and that it is user friendly. However, when emailing logs to myself/doctor, insulin units are shown in a different line and are hard to read. Also, you can't select the range of dates when emailing logs. Finally, logs should be displayed from the latest to the most recent and not viceversa. Nonetheless, please note that this is the best app that I have tried thus far.

JRMTactical ,

Very easy to set up/use

Just got diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and I needed something that would allow me to keep logs easily & allow me to share them with my provider easily. As it stands, this app is perfect for me and my lifestyle. I highly recommend it.

If medicines could be ALREADY in the app with the ability to select them from a drop down to a list of "your" medicines, it would save time.

Rich & Diane in Florida ,

A Terrific Program now with Full Sync Capabilities

I've been using this App for sometime now and thought it was just great.  NOW, they that upgraded to sync with their website, it leaves me in awe.  One terrific program with the ability to sync data for easy viewing.  This App has gone well above and beyond any of my expectations. A full five Stars to you.


Thanks again for providing a super service.

GilesLoco ,

New version is great again

The new update is great. The graphs are back and you can add new entries from the logs page. The only thing they haven't added back yet is being able to sort logs by type (meds, food, glucose).

This is the easiest app for adding all info so it's great for those of us with short memories (I always forget when I last took insulin or ate).

Thanks for the great app and update!

flskevin ,

Great Idea but not perfect

I would give GB 5 stars but the app won't let me save items that have been input under Meds Food & Activity headings. It's a free program and is great to keep track of your BG. I was planning to get the update except it was a pay add-on. I'm glad I didn't considering it is getting terrible reviews. Instead of adding new stuff on, make it easier for new users to be able to fully use the app. (maybe a dedicated faq/instruction page so users don't have to search for answers to coomon problems)

Michael Corvinus ,

Excellent App, but...

Slick interface, very user-friendly. Nice graphs and the ability to take a picture of the graph and text or email it is great.


However, if you don't want ads you have to pay FOUR DOLLARS. This is why I gave it three stars instead of five. Most developers charge you a buck or two so i felt $4 was excessive. Also, I'm not sure why I would want to post this stuff in Facebook, so that's weird.


Overall if you have diabetes and can tolerate ads or don't mind spending $4 to be ad free, this app is a must-have!

“_M_” ,

All you need is blood!

This app is great. It tracked a lot if the effort and guess work out if tracking your glucose levels and modifying your diet to make diabetes management both easier and more effective.

Aside from that the interface is attractive and efficient to use. While I have not tried every app in this category I think it is the best. But then again I don't feel I need anything fancier.

Teeny118 ,

Works Great for What I do Use of It!

I really didn't use the calorie burning portion because I use another system through my gym that has its own tracking system. I've never had a single problem using it to track and record my sugar levels. My sister is a nurse and loves that it downloads and emails accurately and correctly in an easy to read format for doctors.


Great for what I do use of it

Mwbwrite ,

Easy to use.

I have always depended on written logs or Excel spreadsheets to log in my numbers. Once I missed a few entries, I would just stop logging. With Glucose Buddy on my iPhone, I can log in my numbers immediately and then send them straight to my doctor. It isn't a cure, but it sure makes living with Type 2 much easier.


One thing that make it better is to allow Lose It! to import my food numbers. Calorie Tracker is not my favorite.

FPFD480 ,

Great app, wish it was fully compatible

This app is easy to use and is flexible for the types if data you might want to keep track of. Super easy to use on the phone and after you upload the data to the website, produces a variety if graphs that help you spot trends. Printing ability is too limited--you only get the best graphs from Explorer--any other browser you need to do screen shots. Otherwise great for a fee product.

DLPM2 ,

So much potential

This is a very basic logging app for diabetics. Data entry is easy but the phone app is chart isn't very useful. You sync your entries to the PC version (which looks like a 1990s spreadsheet) where there's more functions even. With this last update sync has become unreliable and server not available errors happen frequently. Happily, when the sync is made, no data is lost. Sadly, considering how many diabetics there are, no one has created the perfect app.

WV Triker ,

Helpful and Simple to Use

This app makes it simple to log you BG (other things, but I don't use them) quickly and easily. It gives you a daily average of your BG as well as the high and low on a neat little graph, which is handy to glance at. I've not yet tried any of the web-based features.


The first several days I used the app synching the logs was a hassle; the app kept timing out. The last several days this seems to be fixed.

Suggestion2Develop ,

v3.0 is disappointing and worse than older version...

V2 was a great tool - showed charts and allowed you to edit foods. v3 has removed charts, and the UI, while more slick, has an inferior user interaction. MYLEstone, please add the following. (1) Allow upto 400lbs weight, (2) A height of 5'11 always shows up as 5'10, (3) Allow user to edit/delete foods, (4) Do not gray out the numberpad if user opts to not select 'add food', (5) The dial on the 'food tab' is too large and makes the page display poorly, (6) display chart as in previous version.

I would have definitely paid for v2 but v3 is aggravating - I am now looking for better substitute apps.

SPokriefka ,

UPDATED: Back to loving my GB app

I realize that I was able to use the Glucose Buddy program for almost a year without any fees or charges. I was also using 2 other apps to track the weight and BP, so imagine my excitement when one of my favorite and most useful programs was adding all that into the one app for a small fee of $2.99.


I have been informed by their Support Team that if you update/upgrade iPhone or iTunes you have to "buy premium features" again and you won't be charged if you already purchased it. I can attest to the fact that this does work.


One final request for the makers of this great little app . . Can you add another tab that tracks Body Fat %, Total muscle %, and BMI type features - possibly user-defined fields???


Keep up the good work guys!

Danno1948 ,

Diabetes Management Made Easy!

This is the perfect tool for anyone with diabetes; particularly for someone who has been recently diagnosed. Knowledge is power and this program provides everything you need to be able to get ahead and stay ahead of your disease and have some degree of control over your own destiny. My diabetes educator loves the e-mail reports and has recommended BG Buddy to many of her patients.

TRN Apper ,

A controlling "buddy"

The biggest reason for the downgrade is the greedy across device sync fee of $13. Come on! It's my data!! They want to charge me to load my own data onto different devices? Sham on them.


I wonder if the developers ever had to use the app to tracl their data for while? Yes, the app does a lot of stuff, but after a few days of entering the exact same info time after time, it becomes obvious that they haven't. Like most folls using this I take meds regularly- same stuff around same time every day - and a lot of stuff. Yet I have to select each one and dose to log it. A preset would make sense.

CindyKRD ,

Very helpful app

I am a newly diagnosed Type II diabetic and an avid iPad user. Immediately after diagnosis, I went shopping for blood sugar tracking apps. I probably tried about a dozen apps looking for one that was a good fit for me. After more than a month of app trials, this one remains in my top three favorites. I really like that it has the ability to also track A1c results. It is easy to use with many options. I can easily recommend it.

OKIE LINGUA ,

Glucose Buddy

I really like the way the log is set up for recording notes with my glucose readings. I like the graph and the fact that I can look for patterns and if there is any reading that is unusually high or low, I can instantly refer back to my log. I have not used the other facets of the program but there are other areas where I can add info or connect with other devices.

Mahina31 ,

Great tracking app

I didn't need anything complicated as I got gestational diabetes and just needed to track my levels. I love how with a few taps I'm able to log my level select time of day and which reading I was making, but also make notes as to what I ate to see if one food made a difference over others. Love the graphing and email features as well! Perfect!

Maxheadspace ,

Bogus Graph Plots

Instead of plotting my readings by time, which is important to gauge impact of daily activities, it groups the plots by high, medium and low. That has little utility for me since I can't look back and relate a score to a daily activity. Also, it often adds a BOGUS entry on the graph for a test I didn't take! It looks like it does an average of my high and low scores and creates a graph entry in between. Totally false!!! Even if I take a third test, the bogus entry remains. Right now the only utility for me is the logging feature. And I could do that with Apple Note. I won't buy this app.

MusicianComposer ,

Don't Waste Your Money! This is total junk!

I know many people don't like negative reviews. However, if I would have known this app was so worthless I would not have made the "in app" purchase. I'm really getting sick and tired of Apple allowing worthless app makers like this one to have their cheap apps listed.


Apple will not refund you when you find out how worthless this app is. This app maker will not refund you either. In other words, you're SOL.


This lousy app trys to make it a "one-size fits all" setup. Guess what? It does not work that way Mr. So-Called app maker. Your app is worthless, and cheap, and you cheated me out of my money!

SoccerCoachFun ,

Simple logbook output not available

After looking at many of these apps it seems difficult for any of them out put the logbook with the easiest of information like date, time, glucose reading , meal type (before or after meals or bedtime or waking up) and notes in a list format.

If your doctor has this level of detail he can adjust your medications based on your notes what you did and how he were eating per se. Seems simple enough for all these apps to do this but none of them seem to have that simple ability.

twerppoet ,

Best with pre-planned meals.

It's got a good interface. I found it easy to make entries and I liked the reports. On the down side you have to figure out how many carbs you ate by some other method. There is no access to a food list, not even one you create yourself. Not a problem if you pre-plan your meals, and it's easy enough to remedy by pairing up with another food app of your choice if you don't mind switching back and forth.

McWeizer ,

Why pay when the best app is free!!

This app is by far my most used app. I can keep track of everything for my gestational diabetes and sync it to their website. The support is awesome, they are very responsive to all my emails. I paid for another diabetes app and ended up deleting it because this one has everything I needed and did it better. Keep up the great work!!

LadyVella ,

Totally Recomended!

Great App! I was so lost when I was first diagnosed. I knew I didnt want to keep my logs the old fashioned way. This app has comprehensive logs for all needs, gloucose readings, food, meds and activies. I am able to email my logs to myself and import into Excel to print for the doctors records. Also, got fast response to my questions from the developer, excellent CS! Better then any of the other diabetes apps I have tried!

Monroe Mike ,

Update: so far so good and getting better!

Wow! So far I'm impressed! I've been using Diabeties Pilot for Palm OS for years and this app is a nice migration with familiar logs and features. The ability to directly email logs and take a snapshot of the graph is wonderful! My only suggestion at this point would be to add the actual estimated A1C average according to the BG average.


A few of us were having issues syncing to the new web based portal but within a few days the developers had it fixed. They were quick to help! Very pleased and look forward to future updates.


I use this app several times a day. You'll be pleased!

Mrs.Eudy ,

Tickled to find this as a FREE app!

Devastated when I discovered I have diabetes, but finding this app has helped a LOT! I was making a log in my notepad, then found this and realized it has the ability to send my record of BS readings to my doctors email! It also has a LOT of other bells and whistles I haven't taken the time to play with, but it's definitely worth your time! Thank you Glucose Buddy! (:

appreview411 ,

Great except for 1 thing

This app is easy to use, and I love the graph feature. The only thing I would fix is that when you are entering a log, there is no "felt low" or "felt high" tag. So if I check and I'm 50, a week later I won't know if I actually felt low or I happened to be low at a regular check. But other than that, this app is awesome! If they fix that one problem I would definitely give it 5 stars.

DomG2 ,

A Great way to track blood sugar

Nice app. At its core is a quick and easy way to record blood sugar levels on the iPhone. Save them to the server and sign up for a free account and you can analyze the data via all sorts of tracking charts. Brought them to my doctor and blew her away with the detail. No substitute for real lab testing but a great way to verify you are on track with your efforts.

TeacherLady37 ,

Love it

I love this app. I have it on everything, my iPod, iPad, and phone. I can plug in my numbers on any of them and know I can find everything on my computer when I need it. I import to Excel, print and have all my numbers to show the doctor. I can even graph and print that.

It's simple to use and there is no writing things down to be misplaced or to lose. It's great!

Jjlsoccer18 ,

Very helpful tool

Recently diagnosed with type 2 and this app has been a huge help with recording my readings and even notes as to what I ate or what exercise I did. The best part is that I can go into the website and print off a very nice report to show my Dr. at my next appt. it has helped me learn what foods do what to my blood sugar. Would highly recommend this app to anybody needing to track their blood sugar. Also the support forum is nice too.

woop6 ,

Useful Tool!

The upgrade and changes took a little adjusting to get used to, but the. Ew look and information you get are amazing! I like how you can now see an overall picture that includes your steps, weight, and glucose numbers that day. I also like the way your glucose numbers are represented, but I do miss the line graph depiction, overall really nice update!

Alaska Mastermind ,

Version 2 Will Not Open

I have used this program faithfully to manage my type 2 diabetes. It is a great program. However, when I downloaded version 2, the program will not open, even if I reboot my iTouch. Do not download version 2 until they work out the bug--you will lose access to the program completely.

Glucose Buddy ,

A convenient and powerful tool. The best I've seen in 25 years of diabetes management!

Powerful, easy to use tool.

It would be great if future editions allowed multiple log entries at the same access time; e.g., I'd like to enter current blood glucose, insulin dosage, food (carbohydrate) consumption at one time, rather than entering 3 separate logs. That aside, it's a tremendous app, and a convenient tool in diabetes management.

GrannyFox1 ,

Awesome app!!

Thanks for designing an app that makes it super easy to track my glucose and other data. Paper logs didn't work for me and I wasn't as careful as I should have been, but this app has changed all of that!


So easy to add data (bp, glucose, weight), and I love the graph capability. Perhaps best of all, using the graph, I can see my real, measurable progress---and after only ONE week!!


Bless you for this!

Maestra Fusilier ,

A fabulous tool!

Granted I'm hoping I only really have to keep up with this until the birth of my 2nd child, but this has been a lifesaver app. Really user friendly with an online backup that is easy enough to share with doctors. The partner app (calorie tracker) doesn't work and the food log has room for improvement, but otherwise a fantastic tool!

Anon5383 ,

Great for my needs

GB, while it has many features, is wonderfully simple and easy for the feature I use: logging readings. The ability to email logs to my doctor as a cleanly formatted HTML table, with a single click, is fantastic. I have one suggestion here, though: allow me to mark rows of readings as sent so I know where to pick up from next time I send readings.

Evenstephen246 ,

Awesome app

I was always forgetting my blood sugar log book when going to doctors. I found this one day and started using it right away. When I went to the doctors to her surprise I had my numbers for her. I showed her the app and she loved it and recommends it to the other patients. This is a really big help for me. Because I always have my phone with me.

cyclista ,

Good, but HealthKit integration?

This is a good app for what it is. A few years ago I would have given it a 4. I bought the weight and BP add on and the multi-device sync. For a while the the sync service was not reliable, but that seems to e working again. I would really like for this to have health kit integration, but it has been years since this was updated. It works on iOS 8, but it has not been updated for the new screen sizes. I fear the developer has abandoned it.

MissInfected ,

Fantastic!

I've been a type 1 diabetic since 2012. It is insanely difficult to keep a monitor of your blood sugars and find what could roughy be your range. This app is fantastic in the fact that you can chart, graph and get your averages throughout the day. In order to keep my blood sugars to acceptable, I treat this app as a game to see if I can keep making at goal. Thank you Glucose Buddy!

shibakitsu ,

Very handy and easy to use

I'm a newly diagnosed T2 diabetic and wanted some way to keep track of my BG without having to carry around a pen and a log book. This fit the bill really well. It would be extra useful to have a calendar feature that shows your readings in a calendar format so it'll be easier to show my doctor, as well as for me to visually see "oh that was my friend's wedding weekend and I ate like crap."

Rushcom ,

Really Assisted me in reducing A1C

I found that working actively with Glucose Buddy I was able to monitor, control and reduce my A1C significantly. I made good use of the average (under Profile) glucose logs and converting them to a probable A1C (through online Accu Check A1C Calculator) giving me incentive and hope. Glucose Buddy provided printouts of logs for my Internist, and Graphs illustrated my strengths and weaknesses, and eating patterns to share as well. Wonderful Tool!

TomtTom ,

Great App - Some suggestions

Great App - good approach with syncing and graphs.

Some notes / usability improvements:

- ability to define medications (exclude the others not being used)

- automatically "guess" phase of day, like "Before lunch", based on time of day

- remember previously used values, possibly some fixed preset items

and most importantly:

- ability to add glucose level, meds and food all in one shot, rather than three or for entries.

Thanks much

Mat.6:24-35 ,

A Step in the Wrong Direction

Version 3.0 is a step back from the prior version in useability and function. The loss of the graphing feature is huge. In addition, at least for me, the syncing feature of this version is not as reliable as the previous version (it seems as though the most current log entry dies not sync). Also, can't seem to figure out how to delete a log entry. Overall not the best upgrade. Please bring back the reliabilty and functionality of the previous version.

Very Good App

I was using another App that was way to difficult to use for Type 2 needs! I like the way this App works! The comparison log is very useful and the input is a breeze!


The only thing I'd like to see in an update is a log for bloodwork results! It's so important to keep track of them and keeping it within the glucose App would be so convenient!!!


Thanks!!!

Does what it says

This program has been a great asset in helping me control my blood sugar. It is easy to use and the graph helps with the visual look at how your blood sugar has been going. Being able to record medicine is a great added feature in the overall decision making on your control of your diabetes. Highly recommend.

rdricks2000 ,

Good program, spotty alerts

I have been using the program for a couple years. I love the idea, and until recently the execution. I rely on the alerts that are tied to an activity. 2 hours after I input a pre-meal activity it prompts me to check my numbers.


The reminders are no longer working, and as a result I am not finding the program as useful. If the reminder issue is addressed I will resume use, but until that time I am looking for an alternative app.

isooner ,

This would be good but one big problem.....

I bought this 4 days ago and registered on their website so I could sync with their website and get more detailed charts etc... however.... I can't do any of that becuase after 4 days they've never sent me the 'verification e-mail" that I have to link from to verify my e-mail address. I can't log into their website and ask them, I"ve e-mailed them twice from the app itsself, but I've gotten absolutely no answer. This looks like it would be a good app if it did what it says it can do, but so far, ZERO customer service and NO LOGINS!

Talk2tisa ,

Pretty good, but...

I like the app and is is functional but would be much better with just a few tweaks. First, it would be great if it was really integrated with CT. Secondly, another APP I used on my droid kept a running average of A1C, just based on glucose readings. Finally, I don't like that everything is jumbled together, such as glucose levels, medications, etc in the list. It makes it kind of hard to take a quick view.

mikeindm ,

Good application...

Looks good, so far it's working well... one thing I'd like to see is the ability to log A1C values and to graph them.

It would also be handy to have either as a separate 'note' page or on the 'My Info' screen a way to record information regarding a sliding scale or other dosage instructions. Especially for thise who are new to using insulin.

Kf984jpl ,

Glucose Buddy

I like the sync feature so in case of a crash the data is safe unlike dlife which I used to use but now avoid, since it lost all my data. The sync feature doesn't work hardly ever though and it's one way sync only. I wish this app offered more graph features but it's still pretty good.

grandmacj699 ,

NO Updates since 2012!

This is a very good ap and easy to use and I wanted to upgrade to the Pro version but it concerns me that it's been so long since and upgrade was done and the reviews were not that encouraging along with your customer service. I just don't understand a company with a great product to not be concerned about these things.

Lee Perry ,

WOW...what a great tool

This has really changed how I track and therefore manage my diabetes. I was having problems keeping my BG even below 300. The tool has helped me lower my BG to by almost 150 points because of being able to manage most aspects of my diabetes in one place. The graphs have been great for me since I'm very visual. I can't imagine not having Glucose Buddy!

Jackzen69 ,

diabetic

this was one of the first apps I got for my iphone everything works great except for one thing you can't input your glucose, medication, meal and exercise at the same time. this gets very tedious very fast. so much so that I now use a app that isn't as good as this one is in all other areas but, it let's me put all my information in at once. That one little thing is the reason this app won't work for me. it seems it wouldn't be that hard of a fix. until it happens I will be using the other app though

Angry Pickle ,

Great little program. Love the graphs and availability via website.

I really like how this app allows me to record my medication, then displays both medication and glucose readings on the same graph so I can see how it effects my levels. The ability to sync to the website so I can view it all on a bigger screen is also a really nice feature.

nj4x4fever ,

Fantastic easy to log and track

This is a fantastic app for those who have to keep track of your blood glucose levels. I highly recommend this free app with many options that can be customized for your individual needs. I am a type 2 diabetic and I am able to keep track of my progress through the free app.

VIPRKC ,

Good start - needs more features

It seems hard to press buttons (dose, carbs, etc. Are covered by time of day and the mimetic keypad).


The email format is optimized for cell phones - my physician won't be reading my blood sugars on her cell phone. Also, it would be nice to select a specific date range rather than showing ALL entries you've ever made.


Other basic tools are great for recording - those are my suggestions above after using the app for a week.

NewCreation2005 ,

Great App for Diabetics

This app has been great for helping to track my glucose levels along with my weight, blood pressure and other important health numbers. It's great because I no longer have to worry if I forget to take my glucose logs to the Doctor it's all on my phone, and I can also sync it to my computer. Good job in this and it's user friendly.

samsam4892 ,

Helping me stay in control

After being a type 1 diabetic for 11 years and having out of control numbers it finally clicked that I needed to make a change. This app has helped me to track my blood sugar numbers and I already feel better! Easy to use on the go and syncs very quickly!

Pohai81 ,

Best glucose monitoring app!

Being diagnosed with diabetes 10 years ago I had to hand write my glucose levels down all the time. After using this app it just makes things so much easier to track my levels. I don't have to waste paper and I always have it on me. I have no excuse to forget to write my numbers down.

weintrw ,

Just another DM software

There are many of these out there. Great graphics but really a database which you have to enter all the data. For some reason I found this a pain to enter my BS or insulin dose when compared to what the meter does by itself.


Unlike the PC world there is no slew of software the you get a cable and the program downloads the data and plots it etc. I am trying meter with the sw built in and USB but also lousy program.


If you don't mind entering all your data by hand give this a try.

Stancie Rich ,

Convenient Record Keeper

I really like Glucose Buddy because it captures all the information I need to monitor and manage my diabetes. There is a place to record medications I take and my BG levels measured at various times a day. I especially like the notes section where I can also note unusual circumstances and other health issues. Helps me and my doctor figure out how to maintain good BG levels more often!

Excited type 2 ,

Type 2 need a tool

Newly type 2 diabetic on pills right now and would like to keep track of when I take my medicine. All the application I have found are designed for insulin. Need the option to track pill intake to. Plus this application needs to be able to choose what stats to view on my info. I don't like tracking food because everything has to be entered separately.

MommaJess31 ,

Great App

This is a really good app for monitoring blood sugar levels. It is easy to use, reliable, and the connection with the web age is awesome. I like the reports you are able to print out. It is a very helpful app. The only thing I would suggest is a better food log/carb counter. And the ability to track ketones. I tried other, more involved and expensive apps and this one just does the trick.

Tmadden17 ,

Great App!

I have been a type 1 diabetic for a loooong time. I was diagnosed before testing strips existed. This app is pretty amazing and keeps all of my info in one spot. I have always had a bunch of the little log books lying around and this makes things much easier. I would recommend this to anyone who needs to manage their diabetes.

Cycle Nuts ,

Recommend

Good app - Not willing to upgrade. Takes time getting personal meds and foods into the database. Suggest getting an additional app to determine carb count other than the one suggested. Dissapointed that there is not an option to turn off the sync counter. If this app had a better way to determine carbs and allowed the sync counter to be disabled i would give it a 5 star rating.

jdroid2012 ,

Really handy!

This is a great app for tracking glucose. I was able to enter old readings manually with no problem. It sorts corrections and keeps things in date order really well. I'm eager for an iPad version or at least for the iPhone version to support rotating but that's not a big deal. Bottom line it's a great app across many platforms.

Liz Lara ,

Great app

This is a very easy to use way to keep track of glucose levels. I use this to Track for my gestational diabetes. It's easy for on the go use. It beats having to hand log in. On line sync lets you email to your dr. Office. This is a great app to have. I truly recommend it if you serious about monitoring and keeping up with you health.

Chels4723 ,

Very helpful!

This app has really saved me. I have gestational diabetes & I'm at home on bed rest with twins after a month in the hospital. Keeping track of the numbers is a lot & this app is simple & easy to use. I love how I can see all my numbers on one screen & how easy it is to input numbers. I would definitely recommend it!

Flaircat057 ,

Great trending app for BG

I really only use this app as a way to keep track of my BG to pass on to my doctors. I do not really use too many of the other functions, yet. So far this has been easy to use and allows me to keep track of things I eat, insulin taken, and resulting BG through out the day. If the other functions work just as well, then I would bump the rating up to 5 stars.

Music lover 4 life's ,

A s avo

Really good app for managing my diabetes especially people who who have trouble writing I've found it easier to hit the buttons on my phone then write at times also nice to have blood sugars with me rite on my phone that's with me all the time in case I need to look back to track blood sugars unexpectedly also nice to sync when at Drs appts.

Rollie16 ,

Back on track

I was diagnosed with pre-diabetes in 2008. Over the last few years I had become lax in checking my glucose. Last week, after checking my glucose, I saw that it was higher than it needed to be. This app keeps me accountable for my food choices throughout the day. Easy to use and convenient

cstenn ,

A really solid app!

I think this is a great app. My only suggestion would be to allow for food to be grouped into meals. Right now, you enter each food item as a separate entry which gets tiring. It would be great to create "lunch" entry with multiple items. That way, you could see the total carb count for that meal and see what you ate, all in one screen. Otherwise, I really like it.

Jozipp ,

This tool is great

TRY THIS APP FIRST! After using this tool for a week I must say it's more than I expected. Data entry is easy and log displays are clean. I had a sync problem but email support was quick and successful. I would like to see a category for blood pressure added in a future version. This version seem to run fine on iPhone OS 3.0.

Mom2274 ,

Great. Works 4 me

I don' always test on the same meter. One in my purse, one in my desk, and one at home. I always have my phone handy so I can record my sugars and my Drs. and I review at a glance. I am also a kidney transplant patient and use it to record daily blood pressures. Since I see several specialists, I always have my numbers available. I am probably not fully utilizing all the features, but it works for me.

Enasia ,

Reliable

Glucose buddy helps me keep track of my blood sugar and meals. It makes it easier for my doctor to review daily readings. So far I think this is a wonderful app for anyone who is diabetic and forget to write their numbers down. Now all they need to do is push some buttons and save and they have an accurate record. Great, great app.

Grammytot ,

Wonderful app!

I really like this app. Great for tracking and letting my doctor see the data and the graphs. Love that I can sync it and keep the data for comparison purposes. Thanks for a versitle and valuable tool! I was using it on my iPod Touch and now use it on my iPad. Wish there were some way to load the old data to my iPad though.

Hey_j ,

Transition made simple!

GB has definitely helped me to better organize my readings & plan for a healthier lifestyle. The email function is great! Being able to send an email if your history to yourself or even your Doctor is great. Being able to print out & view what I ate that spiked my sugar really makes this transition less stressful. I highly recommend GB. No problems so far with the app.

mr_pivo ,

Great App!

I have Type 2 diabetes and have been using Glucose Buddy for well over two years now I've found it to be one of the easiest and best app for keeping track of variety of data points that my doctor wants me to track. I have tried many other free and paid apps and this is hands down the best.

Nyt reader since 1998 ,

Made my life easier!

This is my 2nd pregnancy managing my gestational diabetes with this app and it's been great! I love being able to quickly enter my blood sugar level, when I checked, what part of the day it was (post-prandial, out of bed, etc), and the free space to make a little note to myself about what I ate or extenuating circumstances. Thank you!

Todd-Squad ,

Solid tracking program

I've enjoyed using this program for the last week. It is simple, intuitive and very capable for tracking blood glucose, food intake and medication. It allows you to customize your food and medication. I recommend this program for people of all ages.

Hallstine ,

Great free app!

This app has really helped me get my T1 diabetes back on track. After a few uses I was familiar enough with the app to very quickly navigate and input my BS and insulin dosages. My biggest complaint is that the free version doesn't have a food/carb database. I have to input all the info myself, which is a hassle. Despite this, I love this app, especially compared to others I've tried. :)

Optimist Prime ,

Good for tracking/managing.

I use this app daily. There have been lots of improvements and bug fixed since I started and it just keeps getting better. It has helped me track my blood sugar levels and manage my diabetes since diagnosis. The only gripe I have is that the charts it emails can be difficult to read for the doctors and nurses who need the info. Overall, great app.

LexTac ,

Love This App!

I have been using the GB App for about two months. I love the automatic sync to the GB website. Since I have been using this app, I have yet to write a glucose test value down. My control is better and my Doctor really likes the print out that I take to him on check-up days. If you have Diabetes, this app is for you!

Lalaot ,

Helps keep track of glucose levels!

I like that I can keep track of my levels. My only negative for this app is that I can't send weekly glucose level to my doctor. I would have to erase the old one in the email. Tech support was quick to respond that they are working on it allowing us to pick dates to email our levels to our doctor/dietitian,etc.

Shamay Groman ,

Amazing space and time saver

This handy app saves the space a logbook, food diary, and info book and it has everything a well organized diabetic needs! It even gets all the detailed info that a log book doesn't have . My only issue is on the tool selection scroll it resets on the right side.

Tabik pf ,

Highly recommend

As a medical professional I find this tool to be very efficient for the patient to monitor and record blood glucose levels. This app allows the patient and their providers an effective tool for diabetic control and delivering glucose levels in an easy to read manner while sharing data.

Islandblen64 ,

Great app!

This is a very good app! Been using it for a couple of years now. It's a simple and reliable way to keep track of my blood sugars. I even taught my Endocrinologist how to use it when I visit her. I used this app to email by BS when my doc was requesting them. Would recommend this app to anyone. Thanks for creating it. 😋

mhfaboo ,

Syncing doesn’t work most of the time

I'm requesting that the app price of $6.99 be refunded. It would appear that the developers no longer support the app (based on multiple comments in the app forum) and, sadly, the app does not function properly. The primary problem - and the reason for paying for the pro version - is that syncing rarely works. When one attempts to sync, whether via the website or via the app, the repeated attempts tend to time out in most cases, making the $6.99 payment a complete waste of money.

drachc ,

No Support

I've tried contacting support several days ago-still no response, after paing for the App. Problem has been I can't sync data up to the website. It always tells me I haven't activated my account. BUT, I can get into my account from the website - which presents another problem. EVERYTIME I try to log in on the website I'm forced to reset my password. It works, and my personal info is there, just not my BG readings. When I log out I have to go through the process all over again of resetting my password.

Pita1126 ,

Love love love

I love this app! It keeps me on track with my blood sugars and A1c. I show it to my doctor at every visit to help him make recommendations on medications. It is great to see the graph and averages too. I don't know how the paid version could be any better than the free version. Thank you for an app that actually makes my life easier!

Eva2801 ,

Best app I've found

This is the best tracking app I've found. I don't put in detailed data about food or activity (yet) so I have not tried those functions. But for tracking sugar measurements, it works great. And I have not gotten the full version yet.

It would help if the graph had labels for the days of the week.

E94937162848(83782 ,

MUST HAVE!!

This is an amazing app! I've had diabetes for 19 years and have never been good at tracking my BGs or food entries but this puts it all at my finger tips and makes it very easy to send the data. I really like everything about the app and will inform my endocrinologist and CDE, and the Diabetes Center where I volunteer about the application. Thank you.

Hamachi3345 ,

Why did I update!

Earlier version was much simpler, now I need an online account, now I need to sync my input readings with online account otherwise I have a numeral on the app icon like I get on iphone email app when I recieve new email, on the my info page use to be able to look at average BG over the length of time, not there anymore, instead of average you can input which meter you use. Come on now the earlier version was nice and simple and to the point, would gladly pay $5 - 10 for the earlier version if still available!

Stud4lipjr ,

Brilliant

I have been looking for an application that truly helps me with keeping track of my blood sugar and this is it. I like all of the different options it allows for me to do especially the food and exercise. I especially like the fact I can email my doctor results as well as myself.

jonny1hp ,

Easy to use

This seems to be a good app that allows you to easily manage/see your blood glucose readings. Thanks for making it free! I love it!! HORRIBLE integration with calorie tracker though. Just plain terrible on calorie tracker end as I can NOT get the suggested app to merge-it crashes. Why would they choose this app/company/kid that makes this??!? HELP!

MarBuck ,

Impressed Doctor!

My Medtronic CareLink failed when I installed Windows 7, but when I found Glucose Buddy, my problem was solved. All I have to do is put information in, email & print it and take it to my endocrinologist. He can then see how I am managing before each meal & bedtime & even before/after exercise. Thanks so much!!

James1451 ,

Great Product!

I not only am a diabetic -- but I am also on dialysis. The program allows me to track my weight both before and after the treatment. These numbers are essential for me and my care team to watch my diet and fluid intake. With the log, I can track the progression both up and down. Great job!

Herbolaryo ,

Great but can be better

Rating for free version--no graph analysis if at goal with glucose, a1c, water intake, Bp,weight, bmi,cholesterol ;

No barcode reader for food and meds for faster entry; unit for food is grams only; Bp, wt in paid version; hav meds entry but no saved meds w dosage; exercise need to be specific as to cardio and strengthening; better if could incorporate pill alarm and doctor appointment. Because diabetes affects blood sugar, cholesterol,Bp, weight directly and indirectly, all of this are necessary for optimum control.

newg33 ,

Mrs. Mom

I've been diabetic for 25 years, so I've tried it all. This is a great app, except for the food. The food section really needs work. Who measures the amount of food they've eaten in grams?? There needs to be more choices for how the food eaten is measured. Even a place for putting carbs would be nice. I've just been putting my carb intake in the "notes" section and a "1" in the grams section. If they fix this problem it will be perfect!

arielmp ,

Great app

I like the ease of tracking my sugar levels. One thing that would actually be a nice feature (and I would pay for this feature) is to be able to zoom in/customize look on the graph. I don't need to see an obscure view that goes up to 450 when I diet manage everything under 150.

The app really is great though!

Newpictn ,

IOS Update?

I keep getting a notification that this app will no longer work due to no update becoming available. I really like it and would hate to have to find another. There isn't a date that will happen but an update to prevent that would be great!!

1166 ,

Too good...

This program has been super helpful in controlling my diabetes. I've been using it for 3 months now, and I love it. There's not much of an easier way to keep track of how you are doing, especially with the charts, and the ability to email your doctor directly. Thanks!! (Cure coming soon!)

MYKIDS - 2 ,

Very easy to use

This application is very easy to use. I had a few problems getting it to sync. I contacted the support team and my problem was solved in less than 20 mintues. I would recommend this app to anyone who want to keep a record of their diabeties. I really love using this, thanks for developing it. Donna Gaines

Joyciensd ,

Great app! I can't believe it's free!

I am a newly diagnosed diabetic and this app is the only thing that makes me feel as if I have some control over this disease. I love that I can download my data to the website. Taking the data into Excel has made it much easier for me to look for patterns. Keep up the good work!

DB66 ,

Very helpful

I am relatively newly diagnosed as diabetic, just starting out with keeping track of readings. I looked at several related apps, and prefer this one. I use only some of its features, but it has made record keeping simple, even enjoyable. My doctor seems quite satisfied with the graphs I show her.

Bud.G ,

Exceptional

I started using this app upon switching from oral medications to insulin. The program was intuitive, quick and reasonably easy to use. I emailed both numerical data, comments, dose changes, and graphics to my Diabetologist, effecting easy recognition of trends, and markedly enhancing our ability to control the diabetes.

ams26237 ,

love the app

i second what everyone else is saying. and i love the reminder to check levels after eating. brilliant. i did however have issues with the CT integration and never heard back from the support desk. my CT logs dont sync with the GB like its supposed to. and i wish there were ways to get more info on "how to's" within the app. but i love using this app. its oh so very helpful!

Gilodad ,

Easy to use

Just found out I have type 2 and GB has been a great help into this world of tracking blood sugar and other stats. It is user friendly and the sync feature has given my wife a way to follow everything without having to ask all the time.

SAECMember ,

Good Tool

I use Glucose Buddy every day. It really helps me keep track re how I am doing. I use the graphing feature to share my status with my doctor. Only problem I have run into is printing the graphs. It takes me several minutes of hacking around to get the printout I want. GB claims its not their fault. Don't know about that. I would pay extra to get good graph printing.

DukeZuke ,

Easy to use!

Simple app to store and track blood sugar levels. Blood sugar meter syncs with computer already so I only use to keep records and quickly review past results. Will start using other features such as A1C tracking when I need to. No technical issues so far!

Susan happy ,

Great free app

It tracks my daily readings and gives me a graph showing high, low, and average readings for the day. The graph also has a green shaded area to show the normal range. Everything else is a premium feature, however these basic features are what I needed. The info is easy to enter and attractively presented.

Webslinger0513 ,

The Best !!!

A complete glucose/medication/carb and exercise app with GREAT features. I love being able to add notes to each entry. My diabetic team loves the email feature. Although don't bother with calorie track, GoMeals is so much easier to use and has a much better database. When will GB be able to sync with the new Fitness Buddy!?!

cc70458 ,

Very useful

This product is proved a godsend for me in managing my diabetes as I often test with multiple meters depending on where I am at a given time. this works very well to enable me to have one single repository of everything and be able to bring it to the doctor and show him the numbers and a graph.

GmaKaren ,

LOVE IT!

I've used Glucose Buddy for 3 yrs to log my blood glucose readings. Easy to use. Great to print readings for docs. As a glucose tracker, Glucose Buddy, is great... and I've tried many others. Only 4 stars cause trying to integrate with their calorie counting program, Calorie Track, is impossible; it crashes every time. Calorie Track is a waste. Use Livestrong's My Daily Plate instead for calorie tracking. It's excellent.

Theodore Brackett ,

Glucose Buddy Works to Save My Life.

Without Glucose Buddy I would not be able to track my b/s. I can see what is and has happened, all times. I can plan what I need to do to control my disease. My doctor can easily see what is happening with me and prescribe what need to do in the future. I have to say ,Glucose Buddy is my best friend.

Gbkelly ,

Great!

I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes, and this app really helps keep me in track. Like others have said, I wish it would sync with Myfitness Pal. Also, I wish there was a way to email specific parts of your log to your provider, instead of the whole thing every time. Otherwise, fantastic app....especially for being free!!!

zach.lee98 ,

Pretty good

I really like this app. I've had Type 1 Diabetes fr nearly four years now and I used to hate my doctor telling me that I have to write down numbers so I never did x). but now it's easy!


one thing I would change would be to make the graph show all of the entries in a line graph so you can see a progression over time. thanks for an awesome graph!

Hangrueber420 ,

Very useful

Love the ease of entry, the graphs, & the ability to send a clear, easy to read email to my daughters doctor. They only thing I haven't figured out is how to add the carbs. It only seems to allow the grams. I would like to see how the amount and type of carbs affects her bg. This is not to say the app doesn't do that, just that I haven't figured it out yet.

dt <>< ,

Nice Tool

This is a nice tool that is easy to use as well as being handy. I was ably to enter all my data from my paper journal. I wish I could graph my weight along with my glucose levels. However, I am able to include my daily weight as a comment so my paper journal is no longer required.

..~GiGi~ ,

Azumio geniues

I am type 2 diabetic with the help of this app I was able to get my a1c down from 13 to 6.6 in a little over 1 month! I am a nurse and have had several of my PTA , Doctors & fellow nurses download this app and teach their PTA how to use it! I love the graph and I upload my bs to my chart at my des once a month! Genius!!! 10*********

THANK YOU!

GailGV ,

Get this now!

This app is a necessity for anyone recently diagnosed. Instead of writing and carrying that log book everywhere you can use your phone. It shows you highs lows and I use to show my doctor my numbers. It is easy to use convenient and you can save your info.

Heather76 ,

A Great App for Your Life with Diabetes

I am so greatful for this app! I was just diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes and am still trying to find my footing a bit. This app has made tracking my pertinent medical information so much easier! I would recommend it to EVERYONE who needs to track their sugar and food information!

Zombie Trooper ,

A must for all diabetics

This AP is a must for any diabetic of any type. I have Type 2 diabetes and the graph alone helps me keep track on how my levels are doing. Great for my doctor as well who doesn't have to bring up every day one at a time on my meter. With this AP everything is right there!

I love my puppy! ,

Most Excellent

Keeping notes is good but with this app on my phone it's always at my fingertips! By faithfully entering my readings I was able to see the graph and make better sense of my levels.

I'm happy to say my A1gc went from 11% down to 6% with the help of this app. Kudos to the developers....thank you so much

HalHock ,

For simple tasks.

I am just using it as a log and graphing tool. That part works well. Some of the other features don't appeal to me. Setting notification reminders is broken for some parts and it won't remember my meter type. The fix is to create an account which really shouldn't be required or it should say as such.

Dawakster ,

Pretty good

Helps me keep track better than with a separate paper recorder. Wish there were built in food options with info and wish I had choices other than grams to record my intake. Would be nice if there were push reminders for testing (eg after a meal was recorded) or to take meds. Would also be nice to be able to set "high" and "low" according to my doctors recommendation.

Aliassmith75 ,

Easier Glucose Log

This app has made it so much easier to keep track of my blood sugar. Convenient - I can take it everywhere I go and enter blood sugar when ever (app even organizes my numbers.) And the graphs give me a clear picture of my blood sugar trends. Thanks for improving my self care monitoring.

Cdog1790 ,

Good App - could be better

Don't like having to add my meds each time I make a log entry. Should only have to enter the name once and then just enter the dosages. Also, when you are entering a glucose reading, say before bed, and then want to enter a med, it goes back to the first description. With a few minor changes it could be very good.

Radrock ,

Need iPad app

I have used this for a considerable time. I also have an iPad and think it would be even better if they had if for the iPad and the ability to keep them both in sync. It sync's great with the internet so I'm sure it could work for an iPad as well.

Travis212000 ,

Works for me!

I'm a type one diabetic have been for 16 years this app has help me to monitor my blood glucose along with the food intake and insulin intake also my other medications can be put into this app helps me whenever not around to be able to write something down on paper and pencil.

Works great for me

I've tried several other logs and keep coming back to Glucose Buddy. It does sync by my iphone to the computer. That really was a plus so I did not have to enter 94 entries from my phone to the web based site. I really cannot find a negative at this time.

Paying Attention to Details

These guys are doing these things right:

Listening to users and acting on the info.

Paying attention to the little things.

Keeping users informed up-to-date on the development process. (FYI, this is not only not necessary, it's resource-consumptive, but these guys do it. Cheers!)

Glucose Buddy

Type 1 diabetic. I love this app! I use it every day to track my blood sugar readings and meds. Data input couldn't be simpler. I store all the logs on my iPhone; then, when my doctor wants to see my readings, all I have to do is hand him my phone and they are all there in both text and graph form.

FacePro124 ,

Glucose Buddy gets it right!

Recently diagnosed Type2. After doing extensive research to find the perfect App to help me "stay on top" of my blood glucose numbers I find Glucose Buddy the best! Informative, easy, and innovative. Can't wait to see what they come up with in the way of 'add-ond'. Would most definately recommend GB! It works for my busy lifestyle.

cornfed ,

Love the features!

Works well. I wish it would sync both ways. I have replaced my cell a couple times and lost historical graphing/logs. I have to browse in Safari to see the older data. Instead of showing the doc my phone, I have to take the laptop.

Major3xs ,

Glucose buddy

Great app Really makes it easy to keep track of numbers on daily basis no more paper or forgetting to write it down. Easy-to-use And keeps track of results so I don't forget and I can see where I have been and where I am headed in my results Best thing since sliced bread

iPuente ,

iHealthy!

Since I started treating my diabetes with responsibility, I have developed a good and trusting relationship with my Doctor.


Using this app, she's able to log on to the web page with my user/pass and see my daily readings.


Based on this practice, she was able to reduce my insulin by several units several times simply by emailing me and not requiring me to schedule an appointment for it.


Alternatively, she's also called me in when she noticed a consistent spike which she can see either by my readings or with an awesome graph that shows many days at a glance.


I rarely post reviews, this app is 5 Star!

_Sharon_ ,

I use this app several times a day.

Have had type 1 diabetes for over 10 years and have been using this app for the past 2 years. Very easy to use. Doctor loves it and I never forget to bring my logs with me since they're on my phone.

Bronze Star Vietnam ,

Great App...... But

I have to see my medication nurse every three months. She really likes the e-mailed readings. I have to delete the previous three months to start fresh. What a pain to delete each reading one at a time. THERE SHOULD BE A WAY T O DELETE A DATE RANGE. Work on it guys. I find it easier to delete the app and reinstall. Much quicker even if I have to redo my account info.

BookKat ,

Great tracking tool!

I just needed a simple app for tracking glucose levels and this is very easy to use. The graphing features are great! The only recommendation I have is that I would like to sync both ways so I can have all my recent data on my devices.

Jcs-t ,

Pretty good basis, could use some tweaks.

Overall, this is a pretty good and useful app. It has a lot of good features and covers pretty much every thing one needs.


But there are some improvements to be made. The medications should allow you to set the dosage once rather than having to enter it every time you take the meds.


The text description ("After breakfast") of the time of day should pre-set from the clock. It would be good to have a setting signing time ranges for each time category.


One of the strong features is the data reporting and graphing.


Over all I am pleased with it and intend to continue using it.

DpwnZ ,

Awesome app

Gotta say as a 20 year old, always on the go, type 1 diabetic just using this app for a week has improved my quality of life! Push reminders to check my sugars are a god send!!!!!! Currently using an insulin pump so combine this log book with a CGMS I'm hopefully getting and it'll be a god send!!

JJ Jackson ,

Great free app

I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and have to test 4 times a day. This app is great for keeping up with my numbers. I like that I can add notes of what I ate with each entry to keep track of food triggers. Also, my doc loves how easy it is to review my numbers at a glance. The graph is a nice overview, too. No complaints here!

eekScientist ,

Sometimes won't synch

Overall, this works as advertised. Sometimes it won't sync with my online account. That's on my home WiFi, so I don't know why. The calorie tracking app synch is not free (one-time fee), and I didn't pay for it because that app kept crashing. I like being able to email my log to myself.

arielade ,

Awesome app!

I don't have diabetes but my dog does, and I could not keep track of his food, exercise, insulin, and glucose curves without this app! When I take him to the vet I go online and print out his charts and logs, and he has all of the information. It's a perfect app and always works. It's never crashed.

Thom1948 ,

Glucose buddy is my buddy

This program is fantastic. Since my doctor has "ordered" me to keep records this is easy and does the job. The app on my ipad and the iPhone while combined on the go and desktop at home is the way to go. Keep up good work. And keep it as easy as it is now.

Ahartfie ,

Great app; just what I needed.

Glucose Buddy let me banish the paper logbooks. I can track my BG and insulin very easily. Being able to download the data from the website is a huge benefit, as is being able to email from within the app. Give it a try; you won't regret it.

MarinaThomas ,

Great

Love this program. Managing my sons type two diabetes.

Exporting logs into csv gets is a bit weird when importing. It lists the date/time in 24h format but I can't adjust the formatting to anything else because of an apostrophe before each year. If I delete the apostrophe then it works.

LeRoyNollette ,

Feesback

My attraction to it was that it provided a date/time stamp to log all items but it keyed on the blood readings instead of the date/time. To use it, I use the notes to identify either blood readings or insulin. I would gladly offer my services to develop a set of requirements to best suit my needs.

Ccpltech ,

Great App!!!

I love using this app. It fits my lifestyle better than a paper log. I don't have to worry about losing it. I like the fact that you can print out the logs and show them to your healthcare provider. I'm really thankful that they provide this service for free. Keep up the good work!

Tall islander ,

Easy to use

So far I have been very pleased with how easy GB is to use

I like the idea of seeing my results on a simple graph


I am so new to this, I haven't tried synching it up to my computer yet. Just having the information on hand on my iPhone is really convenient to me

Cloma12 ,

SUPERIOR APPLICATION

For those of you who have decided to take control over diabetes YOU MUST USE THIS app. The application is simple to use and takes no time at all to use. Track all of your high and low trends so that you can begin to to plan what and what not to do. TO GET THE FULL BENEFIT sign up and use the free web site!

jojojavaman ,

If your serious get this! It's worth it!

I keep track of my blood sugar results everyday. It allows me to view my results on a graph to see where I need to adjust my diet. If your serious about getting your blood sugar under control get this app. Highly recommend this app.

Cluster cat ,

Must App

I became pre diabetic this year. I started watching the numbers and manually writing them down. I discovered this app through a friend and I have been using it since. I love the graph and the averages it puts out. I am a visual learner and these two things really motivates me to do better every day!


Kirk

Mspacone ,

Makes life easy...

If you are a techno geek like me and carry your technology with you everywhere, it makes life easy to always be able to record results. I hated walking around with a pen and logbook. I just email my results to the doc and he easily has my results.

PatsylovesEddie ,

Love this app

I have been using this App for just over a year when I was newly diagnosed with type 2. It's been very handy and my dr even approved. Whenever I go to my appts I just show her my entries on my phone. I've also printed them out to go in my medical records. I highly recommend this app!

Just Me Arlene ,

Better at record keeping

I used to carry a notebook in my bag until my friend introduced me to this app. So much more efficient. I can actually keep track & monitor my blood sugar levels & make the needed decision on how to lower or increase my sugar levels by food or exercise. Love it!

Smiglydog ,

An aid to a new diabetic

Awesome app!!! I use it multiple times per day and it helps me learn to control my blood sugar. It is an excellent way to share my blood sugar levels with my doctor. Thank you for creating this app! My only wish is for the ability to merge this app with a food diary.

Old diabetic fart ,

Having fun logging my blood

So far this app has been great beats writing everything by hand and I can easily track and see where I need to improve. My doctor will be please that she no longer needs to guess what I wrote down by hand anymore.

Shannonlilia ,

Simple, Easy & Convenient

Logs my levels quickly and easily and allow me a great way to share with my doctor. I was just diagnosed at the beginning of this month and this app helps make my life easy as I make major adjustments. Highly recommended!

Mr. Shryer ,

Better than most

It is better than the other glucose logging apps I could find, but it has problems. The screen is too crowded. Even on a 6s+ you have to scroll to add more than one medication. The time of day tags don't carry over from tab to tab. You have to enter the amount of medicine (I.e. 20mg) each time, there is no way of setting a default.

Steve Harksen ,

Engineer

GB is an excellent tool to keep track of your blood sugar levels. I use it daily and print the data and graph to provide to my doctor. After 2 months of use, I can see a definite improvement in my eating habits. I have tried the 'integrated' calorie counter, feel that it needs some work. Bottom line - GB is a great app!

Sroberts03 ,

Very Helpful

Since my Gestational Diabetes diagnosis, I've found it to be very helpful to keep track of my numbers.


I found the Calorie Tracker tool to only be geared to weight loss, which I don't need since I'm pregnant. Would be nice to see an additional profile element for women with GD who can track their intake without having to set a weight loss goal first.

Lori Collins ,

Glucose buddy is great

I've been using this app for a couple of years now and it is great for keeping track of my blood sugars. It's easy to use and understand. And it allows me to share this information with my doctor so that we can effectively manage my diabetes.

Codius66 ,

Outstanding!

I was looking for something like a spreadsheet to keep track of my blood sugar in preparation for making the pus to get a pump... Well, I found this miracle app wit so much more! I love the blogs, the ease of data entry and the averages that it provides at a glance. I wish I'd had this on my "palm pilot" 10 years ago!

WinPaul ,

Convenient for glucose levels

Pros: This app is great for keeping track of glucose levels. It's easy to use and has all the essential options for info needed, and I haven't had trouble with the app crashing.

Cons: It's not as handy to use for keeping track of foods, which was fine for me since I mainly needed it for glucose levels.

5ofud ,

Great app

This app has allowed me to track my bgl during gestational diabetes. It is easy for my doctor to read and simple for me to use. I like that it links online as well. I have not used anything in it except the logs for tracking bgl so I can't speak for the rest of the app

cyber553 ,

Does It's Job Well!

The app foes what it's supposed to do. It replaces my old log book and I always have the app on me so I can check A1c, dietary measures, etc all in one, easily searchable place!


The latest update fixed two issues I had with prior releases of this app - bravo development team!

JediMindChik ,

Very Helpful and Easy!

I've used Glucose Buddy for almost a year now and it makes tracking and managing my Diabetes extremely easy! I especially love the ability to sync my logs to the website so all I have to do is pull it up and print it for my doctor visits! Great app!

TiminPA ,

Easy to use

I have been using Glucose Buddy for approximately six weeks. It is extremely easy to use and logically set up. I love that I can test anywhere and not be concerned about remembering to log my reading on paper. It is also useful for emailing the log to my physician.

Happy Bunny 10 ,

Love it.

Been using this app for a while now. I usually keep my b/s in a notebook and then just get tired of writing them down or just forget to. Sense I pretty much have my phone with me 24/7 I don't forget. I also started writing them down again.

ewhaug ,

Ugly but useful

This app needs a cosmetic makeover to earn 5 stars --the icon and splash screen are absolutely terrible.


--Fix the constant crashing.

--Add an option so that emailing the doctor will format the data into a table --most physicians will not take the time to reformat a csv email into an excel sheet.


Otherwise, this is the best diabetes management app since SugarTracker.

Mike a golfer ,

Great app!!!!!'

I am a type 1 and have been using this app for five months . Bottom line it has helped lower my a1c.


The graph and logs are easy to use and when reviewed provides great feedback and insight to your recent history.


If you want to have control of your readings use this app.

MTGMAN1 ,

Wonderful application

This program is great! Just by tracking my food, activities, etc. I've been able to drop my average glucose level from 119 to 100.8 over a 90 day period. I had a question for support and they responded in a very timely manner.

Phoenix Wade ,

Don't get the update!

I purchased the premium add on for this app ages ago, and the reason was to support the developer, not because I needed or wanted the add on. I updated today, I have ads added to this app, and there is no way to remove them, event though I'm a premium customer. I'm extremely unhappy about this. it dropped my rating of this app from 5 to 2 stars, and I'm off to find a different Glucose logger, unless the ads disappear really soon.

dmzphd ,

Very Useful

This app does just what is needed to manage a disease that requires accurate record keeping. I use it daily and rely on the summaries to keep my physician up on my progress. The updates are very much appreciated, since i've used this app for many of the 16+ years with this diagnosis.

Orion18 ,

Great!!

I would give this five stars but for the week I've been using it I have failed to connect to the server on two different days due to server issues. I am currently pre-diab so I'm only checking once a day. If I was doing this more often and needing to track more info I would definitely pay for the add ons.

Kquilts ,

Great app!

I use this app daily, so much better than my daily log book. I can almost predict what my A1c will be by my numbers. I love that it syncs with the website, so data is always safe. Tracking carbs and activity as well can help me see what is affecting my numbers. Great job GB!

MerlinEmmettEmrys ,

Review-O.k.

It's alright for the most part. I like how I can see my blood sugars over the past time and it provides me with a clear and easy graph to show my Doctors, but it logs my account out a lot of the time and then proceeds to tell me I don't have one, so I'm constantly having to make a new one and I lose all my data with my old ones, which is a problem and a pain for my Doctors.

Ell26409 ,

Love it

Have to monitor for gestational. Love the fact the app is so easy to use and keep up with everything especially while I am at work. I also like that it has different settings to show if you're type 1/2 or gestational.

LT-LC ,

Easy to use and helpful to track blood sugar levels

This app is easy to use and helpful with tracking my levels and then easily being able to show them to my doctor. The only thing it doesn't do that I wish it did was send me alerts to test.

devilboy3413 ,

Love App But NO Intragration

Downloaded App 2wks ago, love it. Does all I want it too. Only problem is integrating w/CalorieTracker!! CalorieTracker CONSTANTLY CRASHES & isn't worth its services. Rite now I wouldn't recommend this Add-In. I'm surprised no one else has complained bout this problem. CalorieTracker's reviews really reflect this problem. Otherwise I highly recommend this Apps usage!!

James Bolden ,

Glucose Buddy

This application has allowed me to manage diabetes more efficiently in my busy life. Before I started using this app I did not know where I stood or what was happening inside my body. I now have a better understanding of how my body reacts to my caloric intake and medicine. I gave it 4 stars because I have not yet signed up for all functions yet.

Naneve70 ,

Great app to help monitor blood glucose!

I really like this app I just wish I could email my Dr my logs directly from my iPhone. Also it would be great to change the log sort feature/style. Over all I would definitely recommend this app for diabetics.

AliciaA04 ,

Love this app

I have been pre-diabetic and during my pregnancy I know have diabetes. Been using this app to send my blood sugars to my doctors office and I love it. So much easier than hand writing all my readings and faxing it in. Wish there was a way to record carbs eaten at each meal though.

a.baker ,

Great for keeping a newbie on track

I just found out I was type two in April. The app has made it easy to keep me honest and in track. I would have given it 5 stars but the program calorie tracker that they push for a fee doesn't work and always crashes.

Love this app but not the calorie tracker.

J Dub Jr ,

Awesome app!!!

This app has been very useful tome. It encourages me towards maintaining good blood glucose (BG) levels as well as maintaining a healthy lifestyle. There is even a support group Forum where you can ask questions, receive answers & share your experience(s) with other diabetics. Best price too!! 😃

CHPC Chaplain Tom ,

Poor support or activation fix

I have been struggling trying to activate my account. I've sent in a coupe emails and spent a few hours trying to work through this. Very dissatisfied with app. It is useless without being able to send your blood sugars to your doctor. I have gotten NO response from support. Very dissatisfied! I even have the Pro version but neither activates! Thought this would be simple to fix. However, without contact from support, fix won't happen.

JackieMulroy ,

Inconsistency / Inability to Sync

It's almost as if the person responsible for the server is not awake when I am going to test my blood. I never seem to be able to sync with the server for hours or even days after I have logged my results. I've yet to try downloading and/or printing off my results to take to my doctor but I will keep you posted!

JessyEric ,

Best FREE app ever!

Love that this app doesn't limit your input like some other free apps cap off how many log entries you can make. Gave it only 4 stars because weight should be included & although you can enter food, the app doesn't log the nutrition like some others do... Just carbs (that you have to manually enter)!

MelissaLynnn ,

Great help

This app has helped me to take my blood sugar readings more often. It is so easy to keep track and the graph is nice to see an overall look at how I am doing. I also like the email link. I am able to just email my readings directly to my Doctors office. I would definitely suggest this to others.

KYIndigo ,

Bring back the graphs

I use this app daily. The reason I keep it over other glucose-monitoring apps was the graph which quickly could show me and my doctor whether my fasting glucose was in the controlled range. I unfortunately have to add to the chorus of other reviews that I will likely switch to another app unless the graphing ability is added back to the program. My physician was considering telling other diabetics about this app solely for the graphing capabilities. Please bring back the graphs.

snakecitygirl ,

The Everyday 5 star app

Every day, 3 to 5 times a day I test and then I enter my BG #s in here, my weight in here, at every meal my Carbs in here ... everything goes in here & everything syncs with my PC and there I print out graphs for my doctor. Works great, crashes are extremely rare ... it's the best I've found.

Ngsgoddess ,

Does the job

I use this app to record my gl while I'm dealing with gestational diabetes. The food chart doesn't save so I put my food in the notes section of my test results. The program tends to freeze up on occasion or kicks me out of the program which is annoying but overall it does what I need it to do and I love that it syncs to the net and that I can print off the spreadsheet.

Suzi9197 ,

Very helpful tool!

I have not been using Glucose Buddy for very long, but I use it all the time now. I have been recently diagnosed with Type I Diabetes and it is very helpful to have one place to keep track of everything: blood sugar testing, medications, and food. Thank you!

missyyclaire ,

Easy

I just use the basic features and this little app works great for me. After 5 months of low carb eating, I showed my Doc my sugar numbers stored in this app on my phone. Not only did he like tha app, but he liked my readings enough to take me off me medication!

RedNaxel99 ,

Very useful apps...!!!

I am very happy having this apps. I have been using it for almost 2 years, I every day to keep my glucose records updated. My life is easier since I found it, especially for the graph and the web link features.

lavenderladyme ,

Great for keeping track

As a newly diagnosed diabetic, I find this app perfect for helping me keep track of everything in one place. I especially like that it syncs to my Mac so that when I am online 8 can access the info w/ out having to pull out my iPad.

Anonymous54321! ,

Great glucose monitoring app, could be even better

I really like this app. It is well thought out and easy to use. One thing that would make it better would be if you could set an alarm to remind you to test your blood sugar after eating. Thanks to the devs for making my life easier!

Tissy2981 ,

Love it!!!!

Have it on my pc, tablet, and iPhone so no matter when or where I'm able to update and keep track. Hoping the sync option for the tablet will come soon so I can sync all 3 together to keep them all the same. :)

sgarrison05 ,

Great App

I really like the design of this app. Not sure about the online syncing. I want to be reassured about security of medical records. Would rather it sync to Dropbox or something or the like. Also, you can move icons around but the go back after you exit the app. Needs to be permanent if I customize it.

NaThemba ,

Great helper!

I was never so keen about keeping up with logs until I found this app. The ability to graph within the app and take snapshots impresses my med team - but not as much as being able to log into an online system and get a more comprehensive report. That sort of upgrade is on my wish list.

TJthePreach ,

Extremely Helpful

This app is essential, especially for a Mac user, since most of the desktop applications for linking a glucose monitor with a computer are for PC only. The log-in feature allows me to show my doctor my day to day struggles and victories.

Russell The Organizer ,

Need A Real iPad Version

iPhone application is very handy. Graphing and layout of emailed logs could be improved could be improved and export ability be added. Biggest complaint is not having an app designed for the iPad which took advantage of the larger screen. I wasted $13 buying the sync app because of the lack of a real iPad app. $13 a year to sync is excessive. Still a 3 star rating.

Amateur not an artist ,

The best of the bunch

After running a copy of every glucose tracking app there was in the store this was the best one there is. The graphs online are exactly what my Dr. needs to see. No extra data to enter to see my data in the groupings I need.


Now if the graphs would be on my phone it would be perfect.

OCD for time! ,

Easy way to keep up!

All I need is a way to dump my new meter Verio IQ into this, and I need for nothing! This ap is very friendly to use. Once you do the legwork of entering all your meds and a month of food as you go; it all is as easy as a click every day!

Briman63 ,

Gets the job done

It's an ok app. Fairly straightforward to use, but is a bit slow to load data into and a bit annoying that you need to upload to their server to complete the tracking process (server is often not available). I can use it, but am trolling to see if there is something better.

Rockindogs ,

Great so far, but computer site needs work

So far this app is working great. However using glucose buddy online on my computer is not so great. I am trying to enter my logs and it keeps locking up and I have to refresh and I lose data. Very frustrating. Hopefully this will be fixed.

JHitchEsq ,

Great way to keep track of GD!

It's so simple to keep track of my numbers with this app. My doctor can look at them right on my phone. It is so nice not having to haul around sheets of paper and a pen everywhere. I know I always have my phone on hand!

Listen9876599 ,

Loss about 15 months of data

A few days ago, the app disappeared from my phone for some unknown reason. I was able to download the app again, but my log wasn't recovered. Otherwise, a higher rating would have been given. I email the log to myself weekly, but a few days of numbers were lost.

Seattle Puzzle Fan ,

No longer supported

A great app. I've used it for years but it hasn't been updated or supported for a few years. I doesn't sync with Apple Health or other recent apps. And now I'm getting notices from Apple that it will not run on iOS 11 if it's not updated, so it will soon become useless. It's really too bad because it's so easy to use. Very frustrating that there doesn't appear to be anybody home in customer support or IT. If they update it, it would be 5 stars.

FamousNick ,

Can't email log entries

At first this handy app seemed flawless, but after adding over 100 log entries, it's lost the ability to email them. Unfortunately this has rendered all of my careful logging useless to my doctor. Oh well. I suppose this app is still helpful if you are not being carefully monitored by your doctor, but since I need to give my logs to my health care professional, I will need to look for another solution.

GBAdvocate ,

Doctor Approval

My new doctor remembers me as the one with the neat IPhone app on which I show him my logs and graphs. He wishes all his patients used it as he can quickly see my records and give me instructions on insulin dosage as we try to lower my Type II levels in two week intervals.

Tomcat4370 ,

Awesome!!!!

Love it! I didnt mind testing but logging was a pain in the a##.

this app made it fun and my Dr loves the ability to email in my logs and graphs every month or two with just a click or two.

Only this i would add would be a large food index of common food to make entering carbs easiet

bottledskyy ,

Love this app!!!

This app helps organize everything so perfectly , I brought it in to show the history to the endocrinologist and even he was amazed. He said were doing a great job and appreciated everything being organized so well. Thanks for a great app!!!

JustJerry ,

Great App!

This app gives you an easy and effective way to track blood glucose! It's a little pricey when you buy the premium services, but ultimately worth the convenience. The calorie tracker app crashes every time and isn't worth the effort!

JenDanahy ,

Helps with keeping track and sending in #

This app is really helpful for me. This is my second bout with gestational diabetes and I am require to fax or call in my numbers weekly to my RN. This app allows me to email then in. Us the notes section helps me keep track of food so we can change my diet as needed.

LadyGiGi8 ,

Great App!!

I used to record my readings in a notebook and then on Saturdays, transfer that data to a spreadsheet . This APP has replaced those manual methods and I'm able to immediately upload my data and print out reports/lists to share with my doctor. I love it!

Juju boop ,

Great

I really enjoy this app! It makes noting my BG easier! It's easy to use & set up! I like being able to note when I took it, the time of day & any other info I need to note. I highly recommend this app for any diabetics that test often.

Bryswall ,

Great overall

Great app that certainly helps show your sugars over time. Only reason it didn't get 5 stars is I wish you could look at sugars in a linear timeline not just highest lowest and average of the day. Would also be cool to be able to sort by type of sugar (ex: before lunch or out of bed etc). But it's great!

Huey683 ,

Great tool

I was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and I looked for an app to help me track my levels. This app is great for managing your gl, food and much more. I downloaded several other apps, but this one does the most and is very easy to use.

mustafa_b ,

Best of all monitoring apps I've seen

I've been using it for about a month and it works well. Tech support is responsive and helpful. I inquired about modifying the email function so it will send only a selected range of dates. They say this is coming.

CntrySngr ,

Used to be five stars...

Don't get me wrong, the update is nice, I've never had a problem with it crashing either. My complaint: they took the graphs away. Give them back and this would be a five star rating. I use it daily, but like others have said, my Dr and I prefer to use the graph for tracking. I hope they get that 'fixed' ASAP!!!!

Cindy Hammonds ,

Glucose Buddy

I really enjoy using Glucose Buddy because it helps me stay accountable. I'm happy to have it on my phone because I have great difficulty keeping up with paper logs. Now I have it with me at all times. I still need to learn how to use all of the features

Ashroxthemic ,

Great

I have a family history of diabetes and this is one of the simplest ways to keep track of it. I have to watch my sugar because of hypoglycemia and even encouraged my grandmother to download it on her iPhone.. She loves the ease as well!! Highly recommend

Hughes4075 ,

Great tool

As a recently diagnosed person, this tool is helping me get into the habit of tracking my blood glucose levels. I have not scratched the surface of its capability, but I use what I need today. I'll get to the other capability later. I'm pleased with the product. Try it!

Da Poppa ,

Lencrabb

I have had diabetes for over 15 years, and this has given me a terrific insight of the relationship of insulin and food intake and their effect on my blood sugar. My doctor is thrilled with the charts I give him when i visit him.


Get it, try it, and I challenge to not like it.

Lpp5 ,

Awesome App

This is the best app I have. I was just diagnosed with diabetes and this helps me keep track of what is working and what isn't. So easy to get the logs to show and impress my doctor. A must have for any diabetic. My doctor is very happy to have this organized neat information.

Asatj ,

Glucose buddy

This app is amazing before finding this app I had not controlled my blood sugars very well and once I started using the app I have done well in monitoring my blood sugars. I had slacked off and now I am back on it and this app will keep me going. Thank you glucose buddy.

RonMasato ,

Review

User friendly for the most part; would like the capability to e-mail graphs and data to interested parties such as physicians, et al. Print out capability would be good, too.


While basic and simple, this app does help keep an awareness of trends in front of the user.

simple perfect

All i wanted was a simple way to track my BGL add some notes and be able look at charted averages... I can email an organized chart of my levels to my Dr which is all that i need, although much more is available... Thanks!

michaeljwoods ,

Tops in my book

I have used a number of software programs for tracking my numbers and this is by far (and away) the best ever. Easy to use, easy to set up, great tracking charts and the support is NOW and awesome. Keep up the great work, all of us appreciate it.

Ellasophia ,

Password

I love this app! However, for most people, weight is a sensitive issue and it is part of our profile to help with calculations of the data. Because of this, it would be nice if this app has a password lock.

mommycat ,

Great for recording numbers on the go.

My 14-year-old Type 1 son is great about testing, but not recording, so if we're out without his book I can enter it here. Then I don't have to keep asking him over again. I'm a little confused about how to enter meds and exercise, though, thus the 4 star rating.

Moongoddess255 ,

Easy to use!

I'm trying to manage gestational diabetes; this app is easy and quick to record readings. The graphs are very unhelpful for me, and the program that you can integrate food data from continually crashes my phone, so is not a helpful feature either. otherwise great!

JanuineC ,

Love this app!

This program has been invaluable in helping me to keep track of my blood sugar readings. Love that I can look it up on the website as well. Also keeps track of my blood pressure and weight. Worth every penny. Well done.

2muchmusic ,

New to this

I am pre-diabetic and just starting to monitor my glucose, but this app is turning out to be a handy tool. I plan to show my numbers to my doctor the next time I visit, and with this app I don't have to bring anything but my phone with me. Thanks!

riley'smom ,

Fantastic ap

One of the best aps that I have seen. Use it every day. Even my diabetes coordinator was impressed with the application. Only wish there was a place to record blood pressure on this version, without having too spend $6.99.

Dragion7 ,

Couldn't be happier with this app

I needed something to record my sugar multiple times a day and this app is perfect to record not just my sugar but what I ate as well. So pleased I don't have to carry a paper around and just use my phone.

LeiazMami ,

Great Way to Log my Results

I used this app a few years back and I wasn't able to sync anything. But now they seem to have fixed all the issues I had before and it works great for me.

Smenna ,

Not so sure anymore

Just got notified that this app needs to be undated. The developer needs to update the app or it won't work with newer versions of iOS. And to think I spent money to go pro. Might have to change apps.

EmpressLizzie ,

Great App!

I REALLY love this app! It has helped me keep track of my Diabetes. One suggestion though, I'm Type 2, but I don't use insulin, I use oral medications to control my BG. I would like to be able to keep track of my pills, (i.e dosage,) in the medication section. Otherwise, it's perfect!

Colby42 ,

Great tool for Diabetics

Just got this App. I have been struggling with my sugars and this gives me great information on where my highs and lows are. The graphs and charts are 1st rate. I feel like I am armed with enough information to make intelligent decisions with my doctor on wha we can do to lower my A1C

Lrebzus ,

Great!

Overall I really enjoy using glucose buddy. It is really easy to use. My only complaint is that I don't like the graph. I don't understand it. However the maps online are much easier to read and understand. So I would highly suggest synching it and going online.

BondsRUp ,

Most used app on my phone!

I've used GB every day for close to a year now. It may not be perfect, but it is an excellent tool that has allowed me to keep track of my health & weight, and most importantly control my diabetes without meds. Thank you GB team!

Dialaz8 ,

great app!

This app is an excellent tool for diabetics. I find the interface very easy to use. The logging, notes, historical graphs, and web interface give me everything I need to help manage my BG numbers and effectively relay those

statistics to my doctor. Great application!

billmcbain ,

Works great

Gives me just what I need to give doctor my info. Would be nice of it had push notification or alarm to remind you about specific meal time or to nudge you of you hadn't entered a number in x# of hours / days. Also would be nice if it assumed the category based on time of day.

Angel-blu ,

Great app!

Since I started using insulin 2 1/2 months ago, I downloaded this app to help me keep track of my diabetes. It's awesome! And the best thing about it is I am able to show my doctor my logs. It's so convenient to have all my info in one place!

Kyrjo ,

Great way to help control the sugars!!

I have been a diabetic for over 30 years. The tools available for new diabetics including this one leave NO EXCUSES for uncontrolled diabetes. I am beginning to start to try to get mused into control to save my life for real. This app helps me TREMENDOUSLY!!!

Jeb234 ,

Glucose buddy

Nice app but it doesn't allow much room for add'l notes. You can put them in but you can't read them as a whole note. Don't like that it keeps trying to get you to upgrade to pro. Other than that, I like the way it looks and seems easy to use.

Fundamentist ,

I like the concept

It only took me day to find my way around this app and I find it really helpful to have all my information, blood glucose, medicine and food, visible at one time on one screen. I like it a lot. It's easy to use.

Katie rater ,

Katie Rater

As a diabetic educator AND as a person with diabetes, I found this to be a great app to help manage your diabetes. The "Testing in Pairs" let's you see the effect of something you do or what you eat, on your blood sugar. That information helps you make good choices. I highly recommend this app to anyone testing blood sugars.

Sky raider5791 ,

An old fart

My doctor was very impressed when I showed her my blood sugars for the last two weeks. I plan on using your program in future. Thank you for providing it's use. Perhaps a graphic presentation with recommended blood sugar levels wold be helpful also. My IPad blood sugar recording chart has such a graph and is very good on giving me the trends. thank you!

Tuscany Ted ,

Great app but room for improvement

App makes it easy to keep track of my bs if it doesn't hang up. Frustrating when it won't sync with their server. Notifications not working at all. Fix all the small annoying bugs and it's a 5 star app.

rgaustad ,

Glucose Buddy

I remain impressed by the functionality of this app and the reporting capabilities of the website. A truly great app.

I've been using glucose buddy for about two years now and I find it to be the consummate tool to getting the job of monitoring done!

Richie1242 ,

Glucose buddy

This is one of the best apps that I have down loaded. I have all my BG readings at a glance. I'm able to send to my computer and then print it out and bring the print out to my doctor or I can show by BG readings right from the phone.

Arkansassy Sue ,

Glucose Buddy

Since finding out 6.5 months ago that I have type 2 diabetes I have used Glucose Buddy daily to track my progress in getting a handle on this disease that was out of control. I would be lost without it!!

2leftfeet92105 ,

Glucose Buddy

I love this app! It's so easy to use. I also add my weight in the notes section. Now I'm able to track my weight and glucose in one location. I no longer have to search my house for the paper log I kept.

Spoat ,

Nothing better yet.

I've tried a couple of these and this on seems to be the best so far. Although I always have the feeling something better could be done.

Jenna Lawren ,

Awesome for a busy diabetic who doesn't like to keep a logbook

I love this!!!! I'm sooo busy lately and I always forget my logbook, but I bring my iPod everywhere with me!!! I love it and so do my parents and doctor. He can track what my sugar us doing by the graphs. It is truly a masterpiece!!!!!

Abather Almajedi ,

awesome app

It's very cool app because I don't have to write on paper anymore. It give me what I need however it's little restriction for me because I want to make my own label (out of bed, before breakfast etc. I want to put "low sugar" or like that.

It's fine app!

Gccgc ,

GB

I love the fact that I can also keep track of weight and blood pressure. Thus makes it easy to show all the information to my doctor all in one place. I like that I can e-mail him that same information.

sneedski ,

My most use App.......*****

My BG level in July, 2010 was 498 with A1C 16.5. I went to VA Medical for 10 days. After the stay, I started using this App and I swear by it. With the Doctors help, eating right and daily use of this after 3 months my BG average is 124.5 and my A1C is 6.4. I was taking 7 shots a day to now 0. I love it!

L.S

Tammyb17 ,

Does what I need

Although this app looks like it has a lot of cool features, it's still simple enough where I can simply record my readings. I am only "watching" my blood sugar per the recommendation of my OB (though not diabetic), and this is perfect. Thanks!

James5252 ,

Excellent

The first program of it's type I can happily use without cables and a degree in computer science. Like the chart feature. Please make a version for the iPad and I would be happy to pay for a version without ads.

Wendy Bradford ,

Mrs

I like how I can see all my readings at the same time and compare them. O can see what foods make my numbers increase and use it as a guide to determine what foods are not good for me. My doctor loves how she can see everything in one place with my notes. I love it.

GATJ1 ,

Glucose Buddy Review

Used GB for the past 4 months. I enter everything from my phone and then sync to my computer. Easy to use. Easy to sync. Provides great data and charts for doctor visits generated by the computer. I highly recommend this App for people trying to manage their diabetes.

Sugar Pig ,

Solid

Does the basics very very well, and that's a huge step

Up for my usual ways of tracking my sugars. Would prefer more flexibility in displaying the data. Also wish it would round to the quarter hour on time. We don't need it by the minute! But very very good indeed.

JennRiCar ,

Easy to use

I just started using this app. I like it so far. It's easy to use and I like the notes function because I can add what I ate that made my readings high/low. I wish it had a timer to alert me when I need to test myself after meals. I will continue using this app.

Candlinz ,

Easy to use

Like the fact that you can sync and then download your numbers to a file which can be imported into Excel. I used this to print out my numbers for my doctor.

Ctocm-aw ,

Needs an update to current IOS.

Apple pop ups about once a month saying this app will cause issues unless it gets updated to the current IOS version.

Emmett H. ,

Solid application; responsive developer

Very clean initial application. Contacted the developer about some questions and suggestions, and heard back right away. They're already working on pretty much everything I was wondering about for the next update. Highly recommended.

fernv ,

great app

This app is a great tool to help one stay in control. Love the graph and the ability to email my logs to my self and my doctor to keep track of my progress. This makes it easy for one to stay on top and stay in control.

Gary Yingling ,

Tattletales

Glucose Buddy keeps me honest by tracking my numbers and keeping it "in my face." It is one of the most necessary apps on my iPad and not only a motivator for keep my diabetes in check, but for me to control my diet, my weight and my overall physical condition. Thanks "Buddy"!

Cartel dude 90 ,

Amazing for diabetics

Pretty much what everyone else is saying is true! No more using a real logbook or paper just pull your phone out of your pocket takes literally 15 seconds and your done


Highly recommend

Fred Urrutia ,

Type 2 using insulin

Started taking insulin in late February and Glucose Buddy has been invaluable to me for tracking carbs, insulin and glucose levels, making it easier to get myself under the best control I've had in years. Simply awesome!

Reasonable Words ,

Solid app. Needs to be iPad ready

Great app. Does what it advertises and more. Hope the developers create an iPad ready version.


Only 4 stars. App has been prone to crash and takes several attempts to sync data… A bit clunky at times… I would not spend money on the add ons though.

Cloverblade ,

Organization fix

The app itself is great and I give it 4 stars for that. I love being able to keep my logs in an app that than transfers to the online database. But one problem..the organization of the logs is horrible. The organization really needs fixed. Please..please work on it.

Ladybug5468 ,

If your diabetic...you NEED this app

This app is so easy to use and fast to update long term data in my desktop and then provide useful info to my dr by either email or printed graphs and reports. This app is a must for easy management of diabetes

Sue A W ,

Wonderful Ap. For your phone.

I recently downloaded this ap. I find it very easy to use. It is a must have for anyone that has diabetes. People always have their phone with them. Very easy to pull up to show the Dr.

DLFlyCub ,

Fantastic App

This app does an amazing job in tracking my activities. Putting everything in a graph is the perfect way of monitoring your diabetic progress. And it's so easy. If you can text, you can easily use this app.

Pearlish ,

Excellent App

This is the best diabetes tracking app available. Easy interface, user friendly, and syncs quickly. You can add notes to a log entry, and it's easy to delete duplicate entries. This is one app that I couldn't live without.

Chris 5363 ,

Good, could be Great

One tweak would greatly improve its user-friendliness. My # 1 gripe: why does the time label default to "Out of Bed," even at night or after I've labeled other entries as "after dinner" or other categories?


It would be better if the time label was linked to adjust with the clock, or default to the most recent previously used label.

Alaboom19 ,

Love this app

It has made it very easy to log my readings into it for tracking it rather than having to through my meter. I only wish it had a better graph depicting the information.

Newly diagnosed 2/12 ,

Very helpful

This app is great for keeping quick, easy track of your numbers. The graph is great but seems a bit limited. I wish I could manipulate the data more. I'd like to be able to graph individual components ie out of bed, or before dinner. Overall it's been very helpful.

Grammacansew ,

Awesome app!!

So glad I found this app. Very handy dandy because I can use it where ever I am. Best part is I can snap shot the graph and text or email it to my Dr. So easy to use, my 5 & 8 yr old granddaughters enter my results. If you're diabetic, this is a must have!!!!

Samwise'sSon ,

This app works

Not only can I keep track of blood sugar, but with a little tweaking to some of the items, you can track meds and weight. For free! Get real folks, this app is just about as good as it can get.

KAT Kateygirl ,

Diabetic

Great aid to keep track of my Diabetes. I use it thee times a day. I like the graph to see an overview of the numbers. I can show the doctor my phone because I always for get my log book. I always have my phone.

thpope ,

Hasn't been updated for awhile

OK for recording and getting trends but does not flag patterns. I hesitate to pay because of the long time between updates. Recording carbs could be better like remembering previous carb count and allowing exchanges instead of grams. Needs to have different graphs/log view such as by time or days.

CalebC ,

Painfully Outdated

This thing is in serious need of an update. It *still* hadn't been updated to support 4" screens yet. That means it's written for 3.5" screens which Apple doesn't even sell anymore. It's embarrassing. I would gladly pay good money for a modern up-to-date version of the app; especially if it took advantage of the new HealthKit APIs.


Two years since an update? I assume this thing has been abandoned.

MikeG347 ,

Great app!!

Ever since I downloaded this app I've had a much better handle on monitoring and controlling my diabetes. It's so convenient to have this info so readily available. My doctor appreciates that she can check my progress at a glance.

Bill plank ,

Was a great app,, now not so much

These sort of updates usually come about because there is a new boss on the team...

I agree with everyone else,, it is shiney.. However without the graphs, I'll be deleteing this app within a month...

I was really getting into tracking the trends.. My doctor stated he could see an improvement..

buzzkill1958 ,

Easy to use

Easy to use and sync between my iPhone, iPad, and the web site. My only complaint is against the web site. It should support the same units the application provides.

AgathaApple ,

Use it all the time

I keep a paper log book, but I also use this app. I like the graphs and being able to sync it to the web site. I would like to do a two-way sync without paying so much. I haven't bought that feature.

JaggerRoo ,

Delete log entries

This is a GOOD app. I have been using it since it first came out. However it would be a GREAT app if you can add some of the iPhone's native features such as "edit, select and delete" so we can delete some log entries on my iPhone. Right now, we can only do one at a time. To do so, you have to click each entry and then click delete. You can't even swipe to delete.

Getnskny ,

Good app

I use this app daily. It is a great way to keep track of blood sugar. I send reports via email to doctor. This makes it easy and convenient to stay on top of. One suggestion: because many diabetics have CKD Perhaps you could list all vitamins, minerals and other vital information

Preach_eesh ,

Love it!

I've been a type 1 diabetic since 1991. For 20 years I've hoped that there was a quick and easy way to record BG's. It is the best way to make sense of your patterns and trends with hi's and lo's and seeing keeps things balanced and pushing things to the limit.


Love this program. If you are a diabetic, use it. It is a goldmine.

Notthe0nly1 ,

Works well

This has been very helpful with keeping trackof my numbers, and medications. And I really like being able to print just what I need to show my doctor, rather than my badly handwritten notes.

Elizabeth Tucker ,

Really helped me!

I'm 16 and terrible at managing my diabetes and this really helped! Especially since I'm always on my phone anyways so I always see it and never forget to use it! Definitely would recommend!

Susie Vue ,

Great free app

This app makes it really easy for me to track my sugar levels. I appreciate how easy it is to use and how easy it was to sync to my computer. I just wish you didn't have to pay extra to use some of the other features.

Abdu Nur ,

Excellent!

This app is very convenient and that's exactly what I was looking for...convenience. Also, it's not cluttered with a bunch of extras that I don't need. I'm still contemplating upgrading to the paid version but I should have a decision soon.

Dale9276 ,

Bs

Love this app easy to use abl to mail to your self or to your doctor. I just started checking my levers daily and this helps so much. Thank you for making a app that helps much that is easy to use daily

Sportyxlh883 ,

Just got it

Just got it, looks great. Hopefully never need to enter BGL over 500, but that should be fixed. If my previous review gets posted, the time problem was mine. It was right there in front of me, i missed it. Need to give it a good workout. Like the Testing in Pairs info on glucose testing.

DOWNGRADE!!!! ,

DOWNGRADE

Very good app until I upgraded to 3.6.5. Now it takes forever to load and crashes frequently. The ads on the bottom maybe the culprit. What a disappointment. I should never have upgraded. It was more or less a DOWNGRADE.

Tharpie57 ,

GB great product

I have been using this product for about 5 months and it is great for keeping track of my glucose level as oppose to writing it down. This help to eliminate one item from my glucose monitoring kit. Keep up the good work.

Madebad ,

Madebad

Using to track blood sugar and BP. So far it has been excellent due to convenience, ease of use, and multiple input parameters. Looking forward to using more features and providing my doc with a thorough history. Fantastic app!

gankymcdoodleson ,

Would be okay...

It's a great idea and the way things are organized in it is good. But for some reason I can't choose my meter type (it just keeps switching back to the top selection) and I can't even tap some of the things to ad info. Someone needs to fix these problems and I'll give it 5 starts.

AceOfBirds ,

App is so helpful!

I love that I can get rid of my lil paper notebook that I used to track all of this exact info with before! It is very handy and helpful. Also, I love the fact that it acknowledges Type 1.5 (LADA). I was diagnosed with Type 1.5 almost 3 years ago at 25. It is rare that this type is recognized!

Slcshopaholic ,

Perfectly Simple

I love how easy it is to keep track of my blood sugar. My meter is a mini and a log book just does not fit inside it's case. This app is great for keeping track of everything.

iWNDSRF ,

Great App, helps keeping on track!

I love this app. Now I can better track my progress and get motivated to do my best in keeping my BG under control.


I find myself thinking twice before making meal and snacking choices.

Hockeyallie ,

Great helper

I love that it has access to blogs with other diabetic members. I like the easy to log features, the only thing to improve might be the amount of words you are aloud to put in the notes section. Definitely a big help overall!

alohaoba ,

Great app

I use 3 different meters (work, home, car) so it's nice that I can enter all readings into my iPod and have them all together. This app helped me significantly lower evening glucose simply by changing time not dosage of oral med and did this while on 2 week road trip.

Mischloss ,

Love the online syncing

Been using this app for 3 days and love how easy it is to use. Best part is that it syncs to a free online database where u can view graphs and print them out! Using this app to keep track of my son's bg numbers.

Cool app*** ,

Great app

I was just diagnosed with diabetes and have to test my sugar three times a day.i love that it is so handy and that I can print out my readings for my doctor. I use more than one Meter to test so having all my readings in one place is good. Very good app for free.

DavidE1010 ,

LOVE THIS APP!!!!!

This App has been a big help in getting my A1C down to where it should be.

I wish the CT program would would work, but at this time it is useless. GB, write your own program or join with someone else. Please!!! We need it.

Koqui27 ,

Awesome!

Great app, it's nice to be able to keep tabs on what my sugars have been all in a glance. Email them to my dr easily too which I love! Trying to sync with the calorie counter/exercise app but have haven't been successful. Otherwise love it!

6262836283 ,

Quick and easy

Sometimes it may be a little too complicated, and also there should be a daily calendar in which you can see blood sugars at different times during the day in a timeline format

Jan Dominy ,

Thanks!

I have just started to monitor and this is an easy way to record things. I like reading the forums. Since I'm new to Diabetes it's nice to be able to read stories from other people like me.

Mrembo0214 ,

No muss, no fuss, intuitive

I've tried a bunch of glucose apps over the years but this is the best. Straight-forward, clean design. I enter my numbers, I can see trends over time, and I can take it in to my doctor. Does eveything I need. Great app.

gjrteacherllllllllll ,

LogBook Rocks

As a new user I have found this app very user friendly! Easy to edit, easy to sync! My only complaint is I wish I could just email log to dr. But Health System we use isn't that advanced yet! Lol

CalP2000 ,

I use this app every day!

Needs a starter manual or maybe a "show me" video. Over the years I've tried a few of these apps. I keep coming back to this one because it seems to be the best for me.

LitiG ,

Needs tweaks but GREAT

Needs A1C setting and needs weight above 341 to at least 400 BUT this program has helped me go from a 9.5 A1C two months ago to a 7.3; a reduction my endocrinologist said was "outstanding" and he likes the reports I fax as well.

DepthOverSpeed ,

Made a difference

Changed my habits and improved my health. The ease of use made me more likely to test and record, and to change my food choices based on readings. I've lost 30 lbs and dropped from an 8.9 A1c to a 6.2 in 3.5 mos by cutting carbs and closely watching the meter as I improved. Great tool.

RN HOt T ,

Great app

I really like this app. Recently started on insulin and needed something to help me keep track on my iPad, not only can I keep track, view a graph of my bs to get better control, but I can also email to my doctor. Love it!!!

Minnie208 ,

Great bg app

I like everything about this app except that the graphs are not very helpful to me. Having said that, I have not been able to find an app with superior graphs, so I can't complain too much. Glucose Buddy allows you to download your data, so I just dump it into Excel and graph there.

Dave Siccardi ,

Better than paper

When I first loaded the app I was still keeping a paper log. It only took a week to say goodbye to the old log book. I really like the program and look forward to even more integration to my health program.

KwaiLau ,

Helpful!

This is a great app for monitoring my blood sugar levels. Having a web site to store and display the information is a good way to track my history. Easy to use and well laid out.

Shellster61 ,

Neat tool

I am using the freebie version and it works like it should and for what I need. I needed to keep track of my readings/meds/insulin and regular paper and pen wasnt working for me. This is a handy tool for people on the go. I would recommend it.

TechnicalKat ,

Good ap for pets

I use it to track and send my cat's levels to the vet to monitor dosage. The meal information helps (while not accurate because of snacking) the vet. Would like it to run on iPad. And hope to have an integrated testing device directly feed to ap one day.

Mitten queen ,

Great app!

I was recently diagnosed with gestational diabetes and am tracking my glucose four times a day. I have been using this app daily and I love it. I also love that I can email my log to myself and print for my doctors appointment!

Southern viewer ,

Simple great for new Type 2

It does everything and is simple to use. Blood glucose tracking is fine, graphing won't show high levels ( goes off scale) and wot function horizontally.

Tailgate Irv ,

GB good selling CT app bad!

This app is very good. The companion app Calorie Tracker detracts from this app. GB would have been better served by expanding the notes section to track carbs, calories and exercise rather that push a second app where the foods in it's database are uncommon. Try finding grapes or pretzels on that app without manually inputting...

dickdono ,

Helpful

I'm type 2. This app has been helpful for tracking glucose and it is easy to use. There are companion apps for tracking food, weight, etc., but the integration is poor and they are not as stable. I recommend this app; but don't bother with the add-ons at this time.

JsLoveBug97 ,

Love the app, however

The calories burned for activities is WAY off!!! 3 hours of road biking burns waaaay more calories then the around 80 or 100 the app states. In 3 hours I ride about 35 miles on a road bike...peddling. I know I'm burning more then the app says. Other activities are way off too. But as a log just for glucose tracking...I love it. It's super easy.

Unus3d123456155 ,

I'd be screwed without this

As a newly diagnosed diabetic this app has been invaluable. Only thing that bothers me is that the notes don't read clearly when you write more than a few words.

ManlyTech ,

Glucose Buddy

My buddy on the go Morning Noon and Nite Just can't live without my glucose buddy Has been a very good and great help for me in managing my blood sugar I have been using this app for some time and it is a lot of help and keeps me on track Thank you Buddy mu Buddy

J (15) ,

Amazing!!

Made my life so much easier I actually want to take my blood sugar more often just to see my improvements and result logged can't wait to buy the premium version

sam goody ,

Great app with two minor qualms

Really reliable, and syncs easily between iPhone and iPad. But I wish it took up the whole screen length of the newer iPhones, and you can rearrange the icons within the app, but they revert to the original settings upon restarting the app.

missing options ,

Lacks better export options

App seems great but lacks better exporting options. Would be nice to see graph option as export. You see the graph in app but not as export option? Capture option renders horrible quality and it's only a snap shot of the screen (view). This is paid app version.

007diabetic ,

Great app keeps you motivated.

I really like this app and it keeps me motivated to be on top of my numbers. I'm sure like anything it could be it improved but it's the best one so far that I've come across, thank you.

Popeye64 ,

Larry45

Have been using this app for about 3 years and find it very useful. Only problem is that I can't interface with my IPhone 6 Health Kit. I have other apps which automatically sync (i.e workouts, Walking Distance & Steps) with Helath Kit, but can't correlate exercise with Blood Glucose levels. Need to be able to synch with Health Kit!

Mayuyo ,

DIABETIC, Add YEARS to your LIFE!!!!

A user for the past month and a half. I Love it. I now check levels at least once a day and its graph feature "is worth a thousand words". I also register my insulin intake and exercise. Worth every penny and more.

747Marine ,

Great App

I use this app almost everyday. Very useful and helpful. My favorite feature is where it gives me the average numbers for all my readings which I can convert into a A1C number. I recommend this app to everyone.

JnetnJoey ,

Great for focus

Logging the data is easy. My iphone's timer makes it easy not to miss a reading. Love being able to see a graph. But I am having problems changing the factor to graph (BP or weight instead of BG)

Glucosechecker ,

Good App

Thus is a good app to keep track of glucose levels. It seems to have trouble linking up with glucose buddy website. I would give it 5 stars if it would print directly from the app instead of logging onto website and downloading Csv and printing that.

Bets11 ,

Review

I really enjoy the handiness of having my results where I can look at them whenever I need to. The only thing I would like to be able to record my own time

Valeria Mathis ,

Great App!

My daughter found this app for me because I just couldn't remember to update my journal because I would never have it with me. Makes it much easier for my endocrinologist to see how I'm doing.

Awesome helper

Trying to track my gluclose has always been hard, but having something on hand is awesome. I love the notes option so I can keep track of what is going on.

Gigi1274 ,

Bs log *****

Great app! By being able to monitor my bs closely with just a glance was able to get be out of 400+ levels down to 100' s! Because I was so high confusion was bad so I entered them rt away and at dr ofc just showed all at a glance! Thank you!

Erlic The Mad ,

Good app most of the time.

This new version no longer works with my 1st generation ipod touch. Since they have been increasing the server capability things with syncing have become much better. Now they need to get healthkit support installed and it would be awesome.

Bijou Boo ,

Great App for Tracking Blood Glucose

I use this app everyday and use it to review my levels with my physician. The only complaint is that it should be a better way to print graph results using the online version. Otherwise, I'm pleased with the app.

Norm Bailey ,

Glucose Buddy

Was using a former app that I'd used on my PalmPilot for years. Found GB and jumped onboard immediately. It has been super. And continues to get better all the time. This latest update just makes it better than the best.

artomcat ,

Good App:

Glucose Buddy is a good app. It does help you to keep track your glucose readings in a electronic log book instead of having to use a paper one. It would be good if Glucose Buddy could interface with glucose monitors, like the Ultra One Touch from Lifescan.

Shari53163 ,

Excellent helper!

This app has been a wonderful way for me to keep track of my daily blood glucose and even estimate my A1c. Love the fact that I can track my exercise daily, as well. Highly recommend!!!

Dixey Doodle ,

Great app

I have used several apps to manage my blood sugar. I like this one best. It's simple to use. And record keeping is a strength. I have recommended it to diabetic friends and family. My doc likes it too.

jcdsmith ,

Need to print out report!

I dearly love this app except for one thing. I need to have the ability to print my logs out! Now that we must present our logs to the pharmacist before obtaining our test strips, I don't know what to do? Please some help from the developers??!

Rascals mom ,

Love this app!

This is a very useful, user friendly app. Keeps track of all meds and blood sugar readings for you and along with My Fitness Pal makes a terrific weight loss program. Highly recommend this app!

Zoraster ,

Makes things easy.

Helps me to keep track. Prints my glucose level for my doc and allows me to keep it as a journal. Only thing I would like added would be a list that allows easy input of type of insulin taken and units.

Billy baby ,

Glucose reading

I depend on this glucose reading as I have a medical condition that requires me to check my blood pressure also my blood sugar levels and this is very helpful for me it has kept me on reason really strict diet thank you

Gil 47 ,

Gil

I've been using this app to track and monitor my glucose for several years and it's never failed yet! Easy to use and customize for different meds. Try it!

Qcdougn ,

Glucose Buddy does my record keeping on the go

GB is a user friendly log that provides a handy log for my readings while on the go. GB also will sync the saved test results if needed & provides a graph and averages.

wheresmygravy ,

Nice App! But could you add one thing?

I like the Glucose Buddy app and it's features, however, I also monitor my BP as part of my Diabetes Care. Would it be too much to add BP data tracking to this app? Otherwise, I have to get both BP Buddy and Glucose Buddy and track them in two separate data bases. Thanks!

Edward Abramson ,

Glucose buddy

BEST glucose tracker. Does what it says and well. Never crashes. My doctor finds the graphs and online reports invaluable. All of the others either don't work or crash. Spent 8 bucks till I found this.

d’s Emmie ,

Good App

I like the ease of use and love being able to use it with the website! The one thing I didn't like was having to buy an addition for weight & blood pressure, then it didn't incorporate them into the BG log. That was definitely not worth the $3.99.

Color calamity calm ,

I love Glucose Buddy!!

I have struggled for many years to regularly test my blood sugar and record the logs. Since getting this app, I have improved 100% and am proud to have something to show my doctor. Use this app!! :)

Mommery ,

Glucose Buddy

This app has been extremely helpful in the management of my Type II diabetes. It gives me the opportunity to share my readings with my physician and me the comfort in knowing I am doing what's needed to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Thank you.

K. R. Jones ,

Glucose buddy

Glucose buddy allows me to track my blood sugar and log it on a daily basis on my iPhone. The graph shows me how on or off my levels are and it allows me to share with my health practitioner with out having to command things to memory or log books.

Jb122383 ,

Love it!!

I love this app. I can log by blood sugar readings and my A1C. It is important to me to be able to have a place to log that and more so I can show my doctor and I know myself what I need to do. Love the note section too!!

WMFD46 ,

Satisfied

Using this app for the last couple of days and so far I am happy with the functionality of this app. Just wish the pro app wasn't so pricey. Other than that I'm satisfied.

tdpowells ,

Exactly what I needed

I love everything about this app. Only thing I would tweak is adding the ability to send more than one week of blood sugar readings. But this is definitely a five-star app.

sonnymom3 ,

HORRIBLE UPDATE!

I've had Glucose Buddy for about a year and loved it until now. This latest update and change is completely useless. It does not allow to log glucose readings with a corresponding meal or fasting and I no longer see a graph. You ruined a great thing. What a shame after paying 6.99 for it months ago to now have to find another app altogether that does what I need it to and what my Doctor will appreciate.

MattSTP ,

Decent App

This app is decent. All I think that it could use is on the graph it should have average blood glucose levels graphed for certain times of day. Morning should be a color, afternoon should be a color, and evening. If this is added I would give this app 5 stars.

High-heel shoe ,

Good

I use this ALL the time. Thus app helps a TON! thanks. P.S. There are plenty of other app out there that cost $30 more than this one...and they do absolutely NOTHING! Don't waste your money on $h¡+¥ apps when you can get this one for nothing!!!!! 

Moondust 7 ,

My Doctor was impressed with this app

My Doctor wants all his patients to keep a record like this app. He found the graphs especially helpful when we took our graphs printed out for him to see.

Technomage Ken ,

Nice but a full iPad version would be great

A useful app, but I'm not a fan of the hamster wheel input. An iPad version would be great. An app with a spreadsheet or table option for entering data from multiple days. Sometimes I forget and must enter multiple entries from paper.

FirstBornofEleven ,

Great help

This app has helped me get my diabetes under control. The chart is especially helpful. I can see how I'm doing! It actually reminds me to test! Something I wasn't doing regularly before I started using Glucose Buddy.

SRHolsomback ,

GB Thoughts

This is a helpful app and it works well. I do wish I could change the graph to see averages for specific times of day as well as daily averages. The link to the calorie app does work, but that is the calorie app and not GB. But having a working link would be helpful.

Kailuakane ,

Does just what I want...and then some!

I wanted an app that recorded my daily blood sugar numbers, converted that data into a graph form and had an open "chat" room where I could get and share information and experiences. Hello G/B. I love it!

Matt III ,

Excellent App!

Glucose Buddy has helped me keep tighter control of my blood sugar. I've had no real problems with this app. Sometimes it doesn't sync my readings, but I attribute that to my wi-fi. Is there an iPad version in the future?

Wildwest1973 ,

Glucose

This App makes life so much easier keeping track of my blood sugar! I'm able to email my Doctors my numbers right from my phone or computer. A must have for Diabetics

Eliza god ,

Food log glitchy

Love the simplicity of the app. Love the ability to email log to my physician. I'm struggling with the food log. Seems glitch as I'm not able to select the food and the amount. The only option for portion is defaulted to gram.

NinaRios ,

Excellent!!! Must have!!!

This is the best log that I have found! I have tried several others, and this one keeps track of everything!

CigarTOP ,

Yay! Charts are back!!!

The 3.1 update certainly addressed all of my issues. This program is FAST, has an elegant interface, and provides abilities that leave all the other BG apps in the dust. Thanks to MYLEstone Health for listening to user desires and acting promptly.

Mike in MI ,

Well Designed and Convenient

I have used it for a few weeks now, and have found it to be well thought out and convenient to use.

Biznme ,

Great app

I have using Glucose Buddy for months. Found this app and love it. Makes it so easy to record as I have my phone w me always. It is fast and doesn't freeze up like the web page does. Even syncs to the web account. Love it!

T-Bird1965 ,

Perfect app for me

Just what I needed. Simple, easy to use, good functionality. I've tried other apps for tracking but got rid of them all an only use this one now.

Gyveidv ,

Can't create an account

I spent hours uploading my handwritten notes to Glucose Buddy for the purpose of sending the information to my nurse. However, I cannot create an account via the Glucose Buddy website! I receive a message each time that indicates that there is an internal server problem. I've reported this to their support website, and haven't heard back after 2 days. Fail!

Mr Moundshroud ,

Super convenient

Easiest and most convenient way I've found of keeping track of BG levels. Graphing function gives you a nice visual of your patterns. Highly recommended.

revtup ,

Good but...

I like this app. it is simple to use and visually appealing. But, there is one glaring flaw and it is glaring. The sync with the website feature rarely works and has been a known problem for some time. If they fixed that problem I would give it a 4.5 instead.

Bpbell75 ,

Nice for sugar tracking

This app works great for sugar tracking but seems to have a lot of useless functions that make it appear cluttered

But all in all it tracks sugar pretty nice for free not sure how much more useful the pro version is but that appears a bit pricy

Flyfishingwardster ,

Great app, but a bit dated user interface

I love this app. It is easy to use and has helped me keep track of my blood sugars and medicines.


My only complaint, and this is a minor one, is that the application looks dated. A more modern design would be appreciated.

Radiantbrook ,

Radiantbrook

This is simply the best app, I have it on my iPhone. No more writing in those log books that don't even give you enough room to write much of anything. I know my doctor will love it!

Johnr529 ,

Ok

I would like to see morning levels have their own line on the graph along with all the different times of day. Also I would like to see a chart where the actual numbers are shown with days on one side and times of day (after breakfast, ect) on the other side.

Believer55 ,

Amazing app!

Easy to use with great features. I especially like being able to have a graph that shows my blood sugar level over several days!

Radyjr ,

Simply Awesome

I've been always having problems keeping everything on track. This app is just a amazing app for diabetics to have with you at all times.

Tomst3k ,

Easy to use

Very good app for keeping track of blood glucose records, as well as weight and blood pressure. Does not sync well with the calorie counter app, though. I think that's more of a problem with that app than this one, however. All in all a good app.

Wizard djr ,

Mind blowing

Very simple to use, keep every data that you input. I went through several programs that made so many promises


You can count on this app

pickypatty ,

Great App!

This is a great App. Helped me track my glucose level to help keep it level. My doctor lives it too. It gives her a full picture of my levels for long periods of time. Thank you!

Caramiamy ,

Great App

I was recently diagnosed with diabetes. This came as a complete shock. This app helped me track my glucose, a1c, food consumption, exercise. This app helped teach me the effects of different foods and exercise at different times of the day. Thanks for the great app.

SailorH410 ,

Used for 6 months love it

Best app for tracking all my vitals. Makes doctors visit more meaningful when they can review history not just current point data.

Syidavis ,

Such a big help!

This has been so helpful and able to email the documents to my doctor is even better.

DawgTVman ,

Thanks for bringing back the graphs!

Thanks for bringing back the graphs on the app. That's really HUGE. This is a wonderful app for the diabetic. It would be great if you could do the same type of graph on the website. This is really an awesome app!

ebresie ,

Good App for Diabetics

I like the app a lot.


I wish some of the cool features did require add ins and subscriptions, but I suppose the have to make money.


I wish the had more graphs possible for analysis, like reading values per time of day, showing med dosage in different reports,etc.

Gigi625 ,

Helpful

I always had trouble remembering to check my blood sugar until this. Now before my doctors visit I can just print it out for me. The calorie tracker is also useful!

Giggsburns ,

Can't even input my info

Not sure why it stops at 341 pounds, but helloooooo a lot of people with diabetes are very overweight. I realize I'm outside the norm of even just "overweight", but it's supposed to be a health app. Accommodate everyone please. Increase weight input spinner. Speaking of which, why is it a spinner? Why can't I just enter a number instead of scrolling past 11 pounds, 12 pounds ...... just to find out it doesn't go high enough anyway.

Hawks13! ,

Great app

This has been very helpful visualizing my blood sugars on a daily basis. Even though some glucose monitors can graph your blood glucose results, it is much easier to see with this app and the bigger screen on the phone. I would recommend this app.

GrammyDM ,

So Helpful!

Having the multi device sync is great, albeit an expensive add-on! I can sync between my phone, iPad, and laptop so I can keep track of my glucose levels wherever I am. That makes me more compliant with both my blood sugar and meds.

Fmo4t ,

Decent

I like the ability to add unique notes to each segment. I would like the ability to edit existing logs with regards to food, insulin, activity etc. the only thing that is editable in the bg level. A bit frustrating. Also takes a long time to load the app.

Rob_LI ,

Good app, but not complete

The app doesn't integrate with Calorie Counter due to calorie counter crashing. While this may seem like someone else problem - this stuff should get tested and hasn't been. Cutting corners usually start this way.


I got the app for the ability to integrate.


You can do the same thing with a spreadsheet program. It's nothing special.

ThomLanphear ,

Makes it easy to keep track

Does a great job of keeping track of readings and medications without going to the extreme. My doctor loves the reports. Just wish there was a way to have readings transfer automatically from meters

JKIJR ,

Great app

Really helps me keep track of my blood sugar. A 100% better than my previous paper log book. Like the ability to capture my logs and send to my doctor.

rt207 ,

Very nice, so far

I hadn't realized what I was missing with the app I was using until I downloaded this one today. I LOVE that I can personalize my menu of foods and that what I eat shows up on the screen. This was my biggest complaint with the other app I have.

Bobs iTouch ,

Great App.

I was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Glucose Buddy has helped me understand the importance of daily glucose monitoring and has assisted me in lowering my daily glucose average. I have tried other apps & Glucose Buddy is the best one I have used.

Gioli ,

CD

Excellent app wish it had more detail on the graph such as more detailed time listings and days of the week, also it should display the medication amount on the graph in order to see the trend in dosage vs, glucose levels and how they correlate to each other.

rthompbeld2 ,

Great idea

I used to keep booklet after booklet with daily readings. Now I just enter them in my iPhone or iPad and print put the graphs for a better picture of how I am doing. Great app, couldn't do with out it!

Benjamin364 ,

Best app around

I've tried all the apps available, I have to say Glucose Buddy is the best. It has really help me maintain my sugar. But it sometimes doesn't open now that I'm using iOS 5. Keeps crashing on me. Someone needs to fix this problem.

Bartolosa1 ,

Easier than a log book

I love this app! Even gets my kids interested in my diabetes control. So much better than writing in a log book.

aaronkaback ,

Absolute lifesaver!

The app has been a G-dsend. I was diagnosed back in may of this year and this app has helped not only me to manage my blood sugar but to communicate my numbers efficiently to my doctor. Thank you so much.

slaterock77 ,

Great App

I have installed this app on all of my iPhones and one iPod. It is wonderful for keeping up with glucose level and offers so many other great features. 5 star product.

MAPKCK ,

Glucose Buddy

Started using Glucose Buddy a few days ago. I was searching for an that helped track my blood glucose and this is just right for me. Saved me from

Investing in a new meter and all of its bells and whistles

LotsOPappa ,

Glucose Control

Glucose Buddy has made tracking my blood sugars so convenient. In the past 3 months my A1C has gone from a 12.8 (way out of control) to a 7.5 (almost home). Thanks!!

chinanuman ,

Great App

I use this every day multiple times. Lets my wife know what is going on without her having to ask. Looking for true two-way syncing. Don't mind that my data is being used for research. I get so much out of this app.

mikmor ,

Crash work around.

The app crashes when you use the "+" key to add a new log under the new iOS 4, but if you use the "add log" button it works fine. Thank you to the Glucose Buddy support team for emailing me this solution!

O_KHM ,

Not worth the price...

This is a case of getting what you pay for. I downloaded and waited (then waited and waited and waited some more) for my activation email that would have allowed me to use the app. It never came. I sent a note to their help account and guess what? No reply. Given the buzz in some communities about not being able to sync to web servers, I'm thinking the developers have abandoned this app.

IPhonedYou ,

Magnificent!

WARNING - Back up your graph or make photos of it before you upgrade to the latest version because the graph will DISAPPEAR!!!!

Why didn't thjey warn of this before upgrading this wonderful application? BAD ON THEM.

tazdevil13 ,

Simple

The app is easy to use and offers many tracking options. I use every day to track my exercise and glucose levels. I love this app.

Jlmack50 ,

GREAT !!!

Wonderful tool to keep my Doc abreast of my levels. I am impressed with the before and after exercise tools. It has kept me exercising, even when I don't feel like exercising !

JoniS1978 ,

Great App!!

This is much easier to do than trying to find a log book & pen every time I check my blood glucose. I wish I could give it 10 stars!!

Trying to live right ,

Used this app

Since I download this app, it's help me show my doctors where my glucose levels better! Plus it reminds me about what I have eaten when it shows high numbers!!

Onihr1 ,

Great app for logging

This is the perfect app for keeping track of your sugar levels, it saves the logs to a website that you can print out later

JustMarci ,

Rarely connects, even the site is slow.

I have been unable to get any of my results to sync for four days now. Constant “unable to connect” messages from app. Wish I would have never paid for the app or, since I did, I wish the developer would put my money toward a more reliable hosting company.

Tetchy lady ,

Glucose Buddy

I have NEVER been good about writing with paper and pencil to log anything.

My iPad is always with me and it is so quick and easy. I also like that I can sync my log to the online Glucose Buddy.

T. Beem ,

Best app for BG testing!

I've been diagnosed with hypoglycemia & needed a way to keep track of my readings. This does the trick nicely! I love that I can update on the web or my iPod Touch & sync both with the touch of a button!

Tidily Winks ,

Patient

I do not have diabetes but it is in my family and I use it to "watch out". I love it! Doc does as well.


I love it, but it needs a better way to delete entries to start a new year etc.

Panther 60 ,

Easy to use

Easy to use. This app has greatly assisted me with tracking my BG and diet. It provides you with a detailed report you can print off for your healthcare provider.

Nothappy1952 ,

Has everything

This app is the easiest app to record blood sugar levels. I have no trouble recording/ reviewing my blood sugar level. Has everything You need.

DPR123dpr ,

Good for keeping a log... That's about it...

Good for keeping a log; synching does not work properly; not too user friendly - no help feature that I could find; plenty of sales pitch for related paid products; better than nothing but I'll still look further.

debbyfurst ,

Very helpful

This is a great app and it has definitely helped me to track trends in my blood sugars. My only complaint is that every entry automatically puts you at "out of bed" and it's confusing if you forget to change it. A great free app nonetheless.

Vatore13 ,

Like it

It gives a somewhat easy format to forward to your drs. I would find it much more useful if there was a photo option to take a picture of your meal so that myself and my dr could check carb intake.

Peacewomyn ,

Best app ever!

This is an awesome app for diabetics! I love how I can chart my blood sugars. I also like that I can show it to my doctor or just take a pic & email it to her! If I could give this app more then 5 stars I would!

Captain Snorty ,

Very helpful app.

This allows me to greatly improve monitoring my glucose levels and improve control.

It is easy to use and very helpful when communicating with my doctor.

DeanGuy2 ,

Works well

Operates without any crashes and allows me to enter the info I need to track. Gave 4 stars because the free version lacks useful features of the premium version. I use the note field to detail meals and activities.

Djsdad ,

Glucose Buddy

Like the app. Wish you could freetext times of day instead of just choosing "before breakfast, after lunch, etc" also wish it would tell you the range of glucose levels for the times of day.

Supa - D ,

Better than expected

Really helps staying in top of your progress or lack of progress! Love it! Also share info with nurse and doc thru website!

ThisGeneration ,

Phenomenal

It's amazing and so easy to use with multiple pathways of access! I love that its website, app, and email oriented! Has improved the quality of my life many notches!!! So grateful!

Molkafe ,

Good app. Has a few kinks.

This app is great for tracking blood sugar levels. It's hard to read the levels with those colors against the background. Sometimes the logs will not sync. All things considered, it's still a good app.

RenieT5 ,

Easy to use, Very helpful

I find this free app very easy to use. Also helpful as my doctor can just scan through the log results and review the graph.

Mitchell1235797:36799 ,

Great tool to use!

Whether diabetes is new to you, or you've had it for years, this app helps you get the "big picture" and track your glucose trends.

Mark of Maine ,

Good App

Been using for a week and easy to use. Nice reports for tracking. Wish it had place for insulin tracking. But over all great product!!

Meekspirit1 ,

Does What I need it to do

I ran out of log books and needed to record my readings. I haven't tried any other features yet but will update when I do

Mahalo2017 ,

Common user

While I like the app, I can no longer email my numbers anymore. Was a change made to this app? I click on email in app and it only takes me back to phone home screen. I liked that feature. Searching for a new app now.

EvanG22 ,

Version 3.0

Version 2.1 was a GREAT app. Without the charting/graphing feature, this app is nothing more than a glorified notepad. PLEASE bring back the charting/graphing feature, and if necessary, I'd PAY for the app. The change from the scroll-wheels to the keypad entry is better, and the reminder alarms are a good feature, but not worth the sacrifice to me. The Testing In Pairs feature might be worthwhile to me over time, but I NEED the charting/graphing capability.

Ray ray wilm. ,

It's great!

I never leave home without my phone so i can track things much better and I use it with my "living strong" app to track my food.

Angelina Bell ,

Great tool.

Easy to use. The graph feature is very helpful and as someone else posted, it's very useful when going to see your doctor or dietician. I gave this app 4 stars instead of 5 because there isn't an app for the iPad.

Stevie1der13 ,

It's ok but has bugs

Won't log anything without taking glucose levels. Also would be great of the log could be copied and pasted into an email for my Doctor's secure web portal. Unable to email my Doctor the results, I have to read it off... Too time consuming..

We46)89 ,

This is great!!

I love this app! I check out other ones from time to time but keep coming back because of its many features and ease of use.

OldFed ,

Glucose Buddy Rating

GB is very useful & easy to use. I especially enjoy the visualization of the chart showing gigs, lows, & averages each day of glucose readings. This helps me be more aware of spikes that are caused by my foolish choices. Thanks for a useful program. Jim D. San Antonio, TX

Al Zot ,

Great product that's easy to use. I'm keeping my logs accurately and timely. I would recommend this to all keeping track of your blood sugar levels.

wsmorgan58 ,

Does a great job of keeping me on track.

This App does a great job of keeping me on track. My numbers have been climbing over time and I have them with me all the time.

SkyTheKidRSBudder ,

Glucose buddy

I love this app! I can write my numbers down at any time and my doctor can see all numbers with each visit. Have told everyone about it!!!

Ploppers66 ,

Great App

This is a great App but I keep getting notifications that it needs updating-and no updates are available. How can this be done-I don't want to lose it?

Wparlier ,

Great!

This is a wonderful app. It really makes me pay more attention to my insulin and food intake. The graph also helps me have a better idea of what my A1C is going to be. Highly suggested for diabetics.

Krusty4591 ,

SWEET

I use this constantly and it does what it says. It is easy to sync- however I have learned to do so in afternoons and evenings- doesn't sync well in mornings. Easy workaround but needs to be addressed. Still the best. Love it!

Air2sea ,

Simply put - Perfect

This product delivers and then some. If you are serious about managing your diabetes, then you need this tool in your pocket to help you do it better.

Angelo809 ,

It's great

It's the first app I open every morning. It's the best way to track my blood sugar numbers and being able to email the numbers to myself.

HalaMadrid14 ,

Extraordinary

I am a type 2 and this app has been very handy and simple in helping me keep track of my blood sugar level. It is effective and accurate. Excellent

Noahsarcane ,

Easy peasy!

I don't always have my log book but I'm always packin' my phone. The entry and emailable graph work well, and the free backup to a web account is icing on the low carb cake. I don't use the calorie counter. But everything else works.

Kamailani ,

Very happy !

Great tool. The best part for me is that I can email logs to my healthcare practitioner. Iʻd like GB to sync with other tools like FitBit and MyFitnessPal. The food section is the weakest aspect of this app. Otherwise, excellent with helping me track BG and insulin. MUCH easier than pen/paper tracking !

CMRMAYBE ,

Glucose Buddy

I have found GB very useful, it tells me what I need quickly. The only I would change is making the graph easier to read. Thank you.

Lilwilleee ,

Meter app

Great app to track your blood sugar. I like that you can even copy the graph feature and that is included in the free version. You can email it to your doctor.

Createaname1 ,

Does not support Cloud

It would be nice if you could synch all the data across different devices. I've contacted them to get support but they don't answer back. It has a "synch" button but it's not clear what it does.


The graphs it generates are not clear either. I think it could improve substantially if they'd interact more with users.

Volcano_Les ,

Way better than handwritten logs!

Since I almost always have my phone with me, this app relieves me of the need to pack a logbook and pen with my test gear. It provides a quick overview of my recent blood sugar trends for important feedback for adjusting my lifestyle.

Baklini ,

Child has T1D

This app has been a great app for our daughter who has T1D. We can track her blood sugar from different devices and easily send info to her endocrinologist. I do wish the food input was a little easier to use.

062612 ,

Good app

Very valuable in my diabetes control program. Share values with my physician which both of us like very much. Like the app very much. Very valuable in keeping up with diabetes control.

arquiav ,

Great App!

I've been using this on my phone for about three years to track my blood sugar - its been easy and fast. Highly recommend!

Sjhaigh ,

Great App

Easy to use. Graphs are much better than tracking on paper. Wish it had integration with Run Tracker for exercise, and a better food tracking app.

Kollerdad ,

Works for me

It logs what I need for now -- blood and meds. If I wanted to track carbs with prepopulated foods, I'd have to use another app. But it links to its sister apps like like the amazing pulse monitor which is smart stuff.

KSOLO72 ,

Apps

This is one of the best apps I have found. It tracks everything you need and is very easy to use. I recommend it to every one who is diabetic.

MyMrMarty ,

Biker Dude

This app makes if easier to store your info and then look at it over time to see how you're doing. My Doctor likes it and that's a plus!

Jacuzzi-s ,

Extremely helpful!

Having been diagnosed 2 years ago, this app has been my lifeline. It keeps me honest being able to see my trends.

Easy to use and helpful

The app is intuitive and simple to use. It's a great way to track your blood sugar. The graph is better than the one in the iPhone Health app.

Wolverine fan 10 ,

Love this App!

As a newly diagnosed type1, I find this so helpful. When I am out and about it is so easy to log my BG numbers and the amount of insulin I take! I find the graphing helpful in tracking my highs and lows too.

Bullcitybaddest ,

I luv this app

I really luv this app, it is easy to use and and keep up w/ what you have going on. I really wish you could make a note w/o putting in a BG, because side notes are very needed w/ diabetes. :-)

Crosswrdfanatic ,

Useful app

It is great to keep track of my blood levels & get an overall picture. Easy to use! However I don't quite understand the graph and wish I could set my own highs and lows for comparing my blood sugar.

Upton Runner ,

Easy to use, nice graphics.

I am overall very pleased with this app. I would prefer if there was a bit more space to write in what I ate, to have a quick overview of what made sugars higher, but that is my wish list.

It's about me ,

Great app

This app does everything I need it to do. Tracks my BG, meds, activity, carbs as I enter them. I am able to display the results in a graph, look at the logs or email them to my doctor.

Manfread ,

Really helps

This app is really great. I am new to diabetes and was in over my head trying to track my bg numbers. It is so easy here. Especially like the graphs to see how my condition is trending.

MotorboatJones ,

Great for tracking, server not so much

I really enjoy the interface for entering blood glucose tracking and ease of use but the server is very temperamental. At times, it refuses to update my entries and none of the updates have fixed or even improved this feature.

fiennes ,

Great app if it doesn't keep crashing

I have been using the app about 2 years and it is great except almost once per two times I enter a value the app freezes and I kill the app then next time it crashes the third time works fine

zbaby629 ,

Better than the apps you have to pay for

This app is so easy to use and has everything you need to keep track and share your BGL's with your doctor. I'm so glad I found this app!

Elvicious ,

Tremendously helpful!

Easy to use, more features than I even need. No excuses to not be up on checking a few times a day

Drice22 ,

Perfect

Love using this app to track my numbers. I especially like being able to email the data to turn in at my appointments!!!! Great app!

Debbiepooh19578 ,

Like this app

Just started to use. Love its ease of use. Love the sites topics. Lots of advise. Just always ask doctor before trying some. To see if it works for your type of diabetes.

XD Really good stress relief ,

Good. Could be better.

For the most part works great The food integration is a fail. all entries default to out of bed would like to see that fixed. The bs an insulin part is good. The website is good easy to use for gathering info for dr appointments.

Slots Moma ,

Really great app!

I have found this app to be so helpful and easy to use while tracking my glucose levels every day. A must have for every diabetic.

Kimberly Kustell ,

Love this app!

I have impaired fasting glucose & my doctor has me testing when I don't feel good. This app comes in very handy because my handwriting stinks! I found nothing wrong with it...yet.

Veatcher ,

Very helpful

I like the way readings are displayed. It makes it easy for me to see how I'm doing, and when my doctor asks me "how are your bloods?" I whip out my iPhone and show him. It's an excellent mgmt tool.

BirdiAnne ,

Glucose Buddy

My teenage son has gone from checking an average of twice a day to an average of 10! This will definitely help him have better control!

KunjiWang ,

Price

I upgraded to pro when it was advertised at 50% off. I was charged the full price by iTunes. Is 6.99 the full price or the 50% off price? Make sure you confirm the price before you buy! I never heard back from glucose buddy when I emailed them for support.

Dink88 ,

Awesome

Great app easy to use keeps log on your phone when you don't have signal ad can then update online later.

Aijan ,

Easy to use, visual and very convenient

Graph part shows your progress, and being able to have it online is useful. Great app.

SM ,

Great but...

I love this app! I've been using it for two days and I love it. But...

This morning I was 534 and the log wouldn't let me go passed 400. I know none of us aspire to be over 400, but it happens sometimes and when it does, it's important to document.

Thanks! :)

-Sarah

Jaglady ,

Great app but needs some of Bloodwise features

I love this app but would really appreciate the statistics in Bloodwise - if only the two apps could be combined it would be awesome. Also, would like to add in food choices but typing in is probably best solution.

Ulric Gilkes ,

GREAT TOOL!!! & APP!!!

Very easy to use . Love the graphs and the logs. I use this app 3-4 times a day. It really helps keep my glucose numbers in range by the use of the graph. I look forward to seeing if my reading are staying in range.

ptowngurl23 ,

Easy and simple

I'm a new diabetic and this makes keeping track so easy. I love the graph feature and enhanced options on their website.

Wp1997 ,

Wp1997

I like this one better than the other one I have been using it is very straight forward and user friendly.

Gd twin mum ,

Very useful

Very useful to help me track both activity and blood levels. Syncs to main website well and like email function

Craftychrisc ,

Nice

Pretty easy to use

Nice to be able to keep logs on everything in great detail if necessary. Thanks so much for making this app free!! We spend such a large amount

broach692 ,

Great app but...

I love this app. It's easy to use however, my one complaint is the fact that my notifications don't work. I've got it set up to go off an hour after breakfast, lunch and dinner to check my BGL but it doesn't do it. Very disappointing. But I do still like the app.

Kadam961 ,

Graphing is poor

I can enter data easily, but the graph function is terrible. It doesn't accurately graph my data - for example, it marked my low as being somewhere near zero, when in reality it was 86. Nothing I've do changes that glitch. Without the functioning graph, I cannot easily see a trend in my sugar levels. Boo.

DWGable ,

Don't make me change!

I like this app but I keep getting messages it has to be updated to work with newest iOS so please keep it working!

vixtoro ,

Glucose Buddy Diabetic's tool

This smart phone and digital assistant application is not just a useful tool but a necessary tool integrated into a Diabetic's life. The access and tools available are key to my health management,

SmartFire2 ,

Much needed!

This is a neat app, but I wish it provided more details like the best range to be in. I would also like to sync it with my meter but it does not support this feature. Otherwise, I really like the graph to see where I'm headed.

BigSteve4212 ,

Love it!

This app makes keeping track of my glucose a lot easier. When I go to the doctor all I do is open the app and hand him my phone.

Lee Doo captain ,

Makes it easy

And even adds a challenge to tracking blood sugar levels. Can't live without it. Really!

Coun123566 ,

Great

App works great, good way to keep up with glucose levels. Has note feature which allows you to add notes about levels, etc.

JtSainte ,

Almost perfect...

A few less steps, perhaps reminders, just little additions would make this app perfect. However, it is better than all others.

MarcieNeal11 ,

Very user friendly!

I looked at several apps and found this to be the most user friendly and inclusive.

ThePepster ,

Very useful tool and easy to use!

I was recently diagnosed with diabetes and this app is so much easier to use as a logging mechanism than my excel worksheet and sticky notes.

2berds ,

Looks Easy Enough

Entering data is straight forward and I look forward to seeing how easy a report will be

JCR101 ,

Very nice

I've been recording, and graphing my numbers on a spreadsheet, some fun.

When I started using this app I realized I had been waiting my time, as this Al does it for you.

Very, very, very nice. I love it.

Trski ,

Good app but crashes often.

Love the app! Very useful in so many ways. The biggest problem is the crashing of the app. I would estimate it crashes about 30% of the time. That is too much.

Cgarcia29803 ,

Excellent

Glucose Buddy is very convenient. It is extremely easy to use. You simply enter your glucose reading, press upload, and the application organizes it very neatly. I am very glad to be using it.

biggame510 ,

It's ok

Needs better graph, like averages of highs and lows the graph given is hard to read. Needs better support I've sent a few requests and no replies. Over all. It's pretty good but was chargEd twice to have it link my iPad and iPhone.

HSR ,

Best diabetes app so far...

I've installed everything I could find to help me track my blood sugar; from free to paid. Nothing comes close to Glucose Buddy. Meds, foods, activities... They're all here.

Berndude ,

Awesome app!!

Still learning all the features but so far it has been a huge help and great for being able to send records to my doctor!!

Mikepennell ,

Awesome app

Works great. I would never use a Pen and paper log, this keeps me on the ball. Haven't tried the food application. Won't allow me to put in the correct meter I use.

2TONYJ ,

VERY USEFUL

I find this app a very useful replacement to paper logs. I find the graphs a quick snap shot of my progress. The way I can email my log to my Doctor. And finally the running averages to help keep me on target. Very useful app, thank you.

AylaNess ,

Very easy to use

Other than a few fails when trying to sync it is easy to use.

bahodge ,

A great app

The scale is great / needs a food list for carbs amount for each serving to record how many carbs i had for each fruit, cereals, meats etc . It would help too with my readings

KenAustUS ,

Clear & Informative

This is a simple way to record your levels. It's also great for reviewing levels over time.


I strongly recommend for diabetics

keeper5689 ,

Very easy to use and convienient

I test my sugar often and this app is a great way to see my progress. I love the graph!! I recommend it to anyone who keeps track of their blood sugar.

TheRiot65 ,

Fantastic Application!

I really like this app and it's FREE. I have only had it for 4 days and it's amazing. I successfully e-mailed it to myself and brought it to my doctor. He was impressed. Great product. Kudos to the developer(s). GET IT, USE IT, LOVE IT!

PDXGlenn ,

One of THE best diabetes apps out there!

Very easy to use and is fully functional from the min you enter your first reading! Ability to e-mail yourself or your Dr. your results.

BobD716 ,

Very helpful

By requiring me to manually input my readings it helps me to remember to take them. My only complaint is in the graphing, it only tracks daily highs, lows and averages. A single line graph showing readings over time would be a nice addition.

Bodoni Poster Bold ,

Quick, Efficient, Easy to Use...What an App Should Be!

Great app! I have used a couple other glucose trackers, but this one is the easiest to use...and has never crashed (not so with others)! Data export (Excel, Numbers) would be very welcome.

ODUgirl ,

Great App

This is a great app when working with a doctor. I can upload and print a report for my doctor. I haven't used it for anything but blood sugar but it is perfect for me.

MacIrish ,

A great resource

Makes tracking glucose levels easy, and sending the logs to my doctor by email cuts down on the number of visits that I need to make.

emleigh50 ,

Great

This is the best way I can keep tract of my blood levels and I can chart it and just pull it up when I see my doctor and show her. It's amazing.

Heavy Weather ,

Functional

For the most part I find this app functional but not so intuitive as it could be. For example, when adding your meds you have to take too many steps to enter them in the app

3101sajb ,

Needs updating. Won't work on next IOS update

Well planned, very useful and easy to use. However, it has been so long since it has been updated the app slows your machine down, doesn't integrate with other health apps and it won't be supported and won't work in the next IOS update. The developers need to get this updated or watch it crash and burn.

Kimovr ,

Great and easy app

This is a great app and anyone with diabetes should have. It easy makes it easy for my physician to see results on everything...keep it up

Beardogmp ,

Almost there

I do really like this app, it's easy to use and doesn't try to make things too "fancy". I wish I could figure out how to add distance instead of time for the activity tracker.

BillTant ,

Okay app

Keeps track nicely but the emailed report could be better. Would be nice if each day could be on same line.

asjonesdpt ,

Easy to use

Reading the logs would be easier if you could group them by time of day. But love how easy it is to use and sync and print off the numbers.

Rapture36 ,

Does exactly what I need

Great app that does exactly what it says it does. Perfect way to keep track of a lot of what is going on with your body day to day. A great step towards a healthier you.

HoneyGram57 ,

No Support

App won't accept my log-in under "setting". Therefore I can't sync my entries! I've uninstalled & reinstalled this app twice now due to the same problem. Have tried to contact customer support but find it to be non existence. Why would I upgrade an app that has no support?

I'll be looking for a new app, tired of messing with this one, if I could give it ZERO STARS I would.

Moehowdy2 ,

Awesome!!!!!!!!!

I have tried at least 4 other apps on recording my sugar levels. By far this is the best. It is simple to use and easy to read! Thanks

HubbysTrophy ,

Love!

Love this app! The only thing I dislike is if I don't pause & go ahead to enter today's readings, then tomorrow I can't enter. I love everything else about the app! And learning more from other diabetics on the forum is very useful.

Boriquateachr ,

Review

It's been quite helpful in tracking my sugar levels. If your a visual type person the graphing function helps you see your levels for several test cycles.

Kentuckyhoneybee ,

New to diabetes

So far it has helped me track my readings and easily enter it on my iPhone. I'm learning how to use the app so I don't have any complaints as of yet.

eLLe1701 ,

Nice application...

I have been using this application for about 2 weeks and enjoying it. I find it user friendly. Support was fast and helpful. Thanks for helping me start to head in the right direction.

Prophet@DNA ,

Graphs are back!!!

Now that the graphs are back this is easly a five star app! I highly recommend this app to any fellow diabetic! And what is even great is it is free! Even if it wasn't I would happly pay for it!

Kal3245 ,

Do not update this app- adds ads only

I loved this app, gave it 5 stars, until I updated it today and ended up with ads that I can't get rid of. I see no improvement in the app -- just the addition of ads. I'm not happy, and would gladly undo the update if I could.

Anburnett ,

Best yet!

I have type 2 and was recently released from the hospital on insulin. And this helps me keep track and also gives an average plus it uploads all my logs to the site securely. LOVE IT!

The hairy potter ,

Structured

The graphing option give a visual representation of where my levels have been. This tends to keep me closer to being on track with my goals.

Darndaluck77 ,

Very helpful app.

This is wonderful for anyone who is a diabetic or is in danger of becoming one. The graph charting the blood sugar levels could be better, but other than that this is a wonderful app.

Rhockitman ,

Had the app for 5 mins and first issue

Tried setting my primary meter to Bayer Contour, but the app keeps flipping back to Bayer Breeze 2 for some reason...it will not stay where I set it. So far everything else looks good.

CTLIII ,

Best glucose tracker

This is the best glucose tracker I've found. It is precise and easy to use. It gives you a true picture of where your numbers are. I love it!!! Been using it for 3 years and am impressed with the improvements.

WBP7650 ,

Thank you for this app !

I was just recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes . This app has really helped me to keep up with the monitoring of my sugar levels .

Kimoozy ,

It's easy and convenient.

I use my iPod touch constantly so as a newly diagnosed diabetic I love being able to log my blood sugars daily and see on the graph that I'm in the "good zone"! It really helps when I go to my Dr's appt. to show him how I'm doing.

RhodeKille ,

Easy to use

I've found this very easy to use, which is important, since I'm lazy enough about checking my BG levels as it is.

One Rad Dad ,

Great, but room to improve

Love the log and easy to use interface. The graph is nice but older eyes need to be able to zoom in to see details. The food CT integration app keeps closing. I wish it were all in one.

Nickandcarolyn ,

Great App

Helps me manage my daughters T1D. Found it in the App Store the day she was diagnosed and it us a great tool to track everything and have all information at my fingertips.

Nicklas56 ,

Great!!!

Quick and easy, Great way to keep track of everything in 1 app! Have been using for over a year!! Still the best I have used!

uufrisbee7 ,

Good app

I like the app, I just think it would be helpful if the log could be changed to show in the other order so I don't have to read my numbers in reverse order.

Roobeey ,

Great app!

This app is easy to use and allows me to share my data w my Dr timely and efficient w the ability to download results directly to email!!

Mandy12182010 ,

Like it

I like it so far. I've had other glucose tracker apps that were annoying to use and so far this one is pretty easy.

LoJoWhit ,

Better control

This app enables me to keep track of my blood sugars without having to find a pen and a log book. Easily shows trends and makeshift mindful oft sugar levels. My doctor really appreciates it also!

Lehi UT ,

Easy to enter glucose readings

If you are looking for a quick and easy way to enter and track glucose readings, this app works great. i have not utilized the desk top synced program yet.

Firechick403 ,

Great app

Come on who now a days don't always have a phone with them. No excuses to not keep track of sugars. Wonderful app, very user friendly, easy to review with drs! Would share this app w anyone being a diabetic. :)

SockRayBlue ,

Meets all my needs

I get to review when, and if I took my meds and I can show my doctor a fairly accurate chart and A1C. Been using it about one year.

L_and_D_RN ,

Great!

I'm a Type II Diabetic x 1 year, also a Registered Nurse... I'd highly recommend this to anyone needing to watch their blood glucose levels! It's a great way to help your Dr see a history of your glucose in one touch!

MichelleS ,

Great App

Works well; I use the app to track changes to my blood sugar and A1C levels. I can also give this info to my doctor, which is really helpful.

Gamemaninfl ,

Fantastic app

Very intuitive and useful app. Would be helpful if it had the ability to download glucose levels to an email. Overall great app.

Maureen Moore ,

Love it

The app is great! I do have a small problem. When registering I entered the wrong email address and it won't let me fix it. So I can't use the forums or sync the app :(

forbisdl ,

Glucose Buddy keeps me aware.

I can think of a few improvements, but not many. I like the graphing and reporting. It has much better memory than me.

jcmenaker ,

The Buddy

I like the portability, since it is part of my phone I have it with me for recording when i'm away from home. The graph is great for me and to show my Dr. It is simple to use. You can fill in unrecorded meter readings from meter memory.

Merry_Mary ,

Just what I need!

I had fallen into a dangerous pattern of not even checking my BG levels, much less keeping any journals. Adding this free app has set me back on track. Wonderful app!

Glennrichard6 ,

Richard

The app is the best app I have found to help me manage my diabetes. I wish the app was as helpful with my diet. I am not sure if it is I or the app that does not know how to track my diet with this one app. I now have to use another app for my diet.

Radnor mom ,

Great app for newly diagnosed diabetic

New to daily monitoring, but thought to check for an app. Found this, and for my record keeping needs, it's easy and always at hand.

Thisnicknamebetternotbetaken ,

Thank U

Simple easy to use app that is way better than any computer software I've used 2 do the same thing. Worth 5 stars.

Baubie ,

Give me back the old version with charts

You have given much more flexibility but the application is more confusing to operate if all one wants is the log and the graph. Where are the charts? I would have graded you 5 stars with the old app', but only two with the new app'. Whose idea was it to eliminate the graph? Please bring it back.

omgvua ,

Diabetics management made easy

I've been using this app for at least 4 years. It covers all the bases in an easy and intuitive format.

Glucose Buddy

Very easy to keep track and you can focus where you might be having issues

Iamktp ,

Love it!

I've never been good at keeping a log book and this app makes it so simple! Easy to use and for my doctor to view. Thanks!

TGM59 ,

Activity log

Activity log in the pro version does not show a choice of activities or have have a way to enter time used for activity. Disappointing!

Key Ring Crazy ,

My Pal Glucose Buddy

Really convenient and easy to use. I always have my phone with me to enter test readings or to show my doctor. No paper logs for me! However, cannot get the photo option to work.

Houstontexasrn ,

Gestational diabetes

I use this to record my glucose checks and it is so easy and convenient. Much better than keeping a notebook on hand.

MidlandsSC ,

Great App

Easy way to track carbs, activity, and blood glucose. I use it all day, every day to get a grip on my blood sugar levels. Do check out the forum to learn how to use it.

JBF357 ,

GB Review

This tool works great for tracking the things I need. It does have issues with syncing up with the GB web sight. This portion could be improved otherwise it's great. I love graph and the ability to take notes.

Showmeiq ,

RN

Great app! Easy to use. Especially like the ability to write comments while recording readings. Creates easy to read chart to show or email your physician.

SkywarnTom ,

My Doctor Impressed!

Doctor liked the graph. The log needs to fill out the page width. Wasted to many pages when I printed it.

jhillian1 ,

New to this!

I recently started using this ap to keep track of all my bs readings and I love the fact that you get your bs average right away. I even have my kids using it. Thank to the creator of this application.

omnibus34 ,

Very convenient

Easy to read and understand except for food log which needs rethinking

TSR48 ,

Just what we needed!

Syncs between multiple devices! Perfect way for multiple care givers to be on the same page.

vegasman1 ,

Glucose buddy's

It works, easily and simply. Puts all your diabetes information in a easy format to give your doctor. Highly recommend..

Ziva1130 ,

Glucose Buddy

This is an excellent app to monitor your diabetes. I use it to record my sugar levels, blood pressure, exercise (under activity) and my weight. I just started recording my carb intake under Food. It has really helped me stay on target. :-)

Lajean61 ,

Wonderful app!

So easy to use and so much easier to keep track of the record because it's in my phone

Cactus Jack Leatherworks ,

Quick and easy way to track your daily glucose levels.


Everything is in 1 place

Db71253 ,

Excellent program

This is a great program to track your diabetes. I would recommend it to anyone doing testing on regular basis. Has been a great help

Wonko33 ,

Very useful

Good app. It's motivating to track progress.


My doctor already cut my meds after one month.


Combined with "Lose it" they really helped me take control of my health.

Fauntasia ,

Great app

I find this app to be both helpful and easy to use. The addition of the forum puts me in touch with others. Highly recommend it!

Radfam10 ,

If your a diabetic you should have this

This is a great app to have if your a diabetic. This helps track your condition and log it for your doctor to see.

cyclist21 ,

I feel misled!

While GB is Fantastic, I feel very misled about their recent integration with Calorie Track.


I spent the extra money for Calorie Track expecting all the benefits that GB indicates. When it failed to deliver, I contacted GB support. They have failed to reply.


When they get their stuff together and give me the courtesy of a reply and really integrate their partner as promised, I will be happy to rate them higher. Until then…

JazzMarina ,

LOVE IT!!!!

I love this app I always tried to keep log books and always failed this is sooo much more convenient and works perfectly for teens as well

Wan8998 ,

Gestational wonder

I used this app all through my gestational diabetes. The only thing I didn't like was that you had to erase every entry individually. I ended up erasing the app and then re-downloading it every two weeks.

supawmn ,

Super user friendly!

So easy to use and you can back date it of you didn't have time to document your BG or food you at! I love it!

Modo529 ,

Keeps me on track!

Great app that keeps me on track day to day! It has great functionality! To be able to see the graph gives great insight into makings meal corrections! Thanks!

Skya 1 ,

Skya

I love this app, so easy to use and very fast to input readings. The app averages out all your readings and even has a graph on how well you keep within the guidelines of blood sugar.

Pair8head ,

What a disaster of an update!

Your new log system is a failure! I used to see glucose reading, before or after what meal, and any notes such a insulin dose age. Now all I see in the log is the blood sugar reading and time. You took a great app that I used for over 15 years and ruined it!

Will be moving on to something better than this "new improved" piece of junk.

Spalit ,

Great app

I've been using for a year, love the quick sync and graphing. Probably the most important and most used app on my phone

Uradamnfool ,

Great App

Love this app. Keeps good track of the results and if I forget to input the information, the app allows me to put the correct time and date.

SkipMcWilliams ,

Pretty good app

This is a pretty good app for keeping track of your levels. Wish there was a way to send the entire graph to an email or a pic of the whole graph. Not just a small pic of a few days.

Lawcer ,

Gb

I use it every time I take my blood sugars it is easier then keeping track in a book plus it gives me a chart.

Beeeeeeee14 ,

User

So easy to use and I'm able to put in all the info I need for each log. Perfect for tracking!

Feyladyd ,

Great tool for managing diabetes

This app is incredibly helpful for managing my diabetes. It helps me by showing me exactly what's going on with my BG and it makes it easy to share with my doctor.

SheilaTweety ,

Blood Glucose

Great App! It keeps all my information in one place. I do wish there was a database for recording food and activities. Over all I really love the app.

Camino-con-perrito ,

Server often too busy.

Have been using GB Pro for glucose, bp, and weight entries. First, the graphs for glucose are helpful, but the bp and weight graphs are useless. Second, the app closes out when I try to edit bp entries. Third, the server is often too busy. Really???

BTW, is "support" also too busy to respond to user e-mails?

Need more "user friendly" alternatives.

Eai23 ,

Not bad but...

I'm testing this app out to see how you compare to log frog. You need to allow two places after the decimal for logging insulin. Pump users can take hundredths of a unit but your system only allows tenths to be put in. Frustrating.

Candy8356 ,

Diabetis app

Great app for tracking ur sugar levels. My husband is a bad diabetic and after this last heart attack he is getting better with his tracking and his shots. His Dr likes it to.

WalkingMiracle ,

Extremeful helpful application

Has greatly improved my ability to notice patterns in glucose levels. The endocrinologist liked the added detail compared to reviewing the glucose meter.


This is the best value in a free app that I have seen.

schmoozyq ,

Love this app!!!

This makes tracking by blood sugars easy and fun. I love the graph feature, and the selection of things to track (sugars, activity, food, etc)

Iahs ,

Good app

Had problems logging into forum that no one could seem to help me with. Still cant log in even though the help line said they would try to fix. Outside of that it's a good useful app.

Cruze817 ,

Awesome-thank you!

Very helpful for record keeping and get to use my iPhone so portable and private. Let's you see the truth objectively. I highly recommend!

Viejomago ,

Fantastic app

This has really helped me understand my numbers better and get them under control!

Markinmiami ,

User

App works great I just wish it had an easier way to import lots of data manually because my meter doesn't have a way to interface with the App. But a nice app nonetheless.

William Snead ,

Great app

This app is a no brainer if you want to stay in control of your diabetes! Best feature is you can email your doctor your daily readings prior to your visit!

RobD-ATX ,

1 Year Anniversary

I've used GB for a year now, still as handy as the day I downloaded it. Even lost my iPhone and sine records are uploaded, I lost no data. Handy for tracking A1C too!

Rex 1950 ,

Format

does almost everything

I want it to do, but would like to see the reports in a better format. Endo doesn't like them the way they are


Great way to keep records though

Txsgrandpa ,

Just okay not great

This is still a good app but personally I miss the graph that gave a quick status over several days.

tacierinrin ,

Could be better if.....

This app would be perfect if the meal tracker worked. I'm using 2 apps and would love to have it bundled into one. Also when I update stuff on the web I would like to be able to sync it to my phone.

SeeingBlind ,

Type 2

Easy to use log with simple upload sync. Reminder alarms not currently functional but iPhone alarms can do that job. Overall, a worthwhile app for daily glucose management.

Track of my blood glucose and add personal notes. I can then send to my email and show my database to my doctor. It's perfect!

JTPass ,

A "must have" for diabetics

Glucose Buddy is very easy to use and allows me to stay on top of my blood glucose levels. I use it every day and can e-mail logs to my doctor.

Luvtoslot! ,

Just what I needed!

Easy to use, keeps all my info available for me and the Doc at all times. The simpler to use, the better for me!

Robert, Susanne & RJ Alicea ,

Pretty cool!

Having the info on my phone is easier than having to write it down every time I test

nogoodmourning1 ,

FANTASTIC!

I've only been type 1 for 4 months, and I've been using this ever since. It's great! Very easy to use. The graph is nice, and the online a1c calculator is pretty accurate.

Mamamulescraps ,

Easy to use!

I use this daily to keep track of my levels. I don't even write down in my log anymore! When I go to my Dr. appointments I can just pull up on my phone my results. It's nice!!

Chicmonique ,

A Valuable Diabetic Tool

A must have for a diabetic! I can keep up with my blood levels and see how they change with food or my meds. Love the app!

Bstaceyn10 ,

:)

Great! The only thing I would change is the way the options auto-reset when you log medicine, bg, etc. all at the same time. Otherwise, very helpful!

wa4hrk ,

User

Excellent well-designed app to keep track of glucose and meds. My doctor lives that I can come in with such detailed info

MrBluSkies ,

Great App

Very user friendly. Makes keeping a record of blood glucose testing a simple task. I find I'm testing more frequently since getting this app.

Newbie ceelee ,

Excellent

I just found out I am diabetic. I am very busy with a career and more importantly my family. We are on the goal a lot so this app is perfect for my lifestyle. Thank you

Debt king ,

Efficient!

This app is great for quick documenting of glucose readings. Haven't used the other features yet but just what I needed for quickly recording readings!

wdchkgsqrl ,

Very useful

Have used daily for several years to track BG, exercise and weight. I like that it syncs across multiple devices and computers. Extreme helpful.

Cdublues ,

CdubluesSmith

Very easy to use, convenient and provides quick access to BG level history to review with your doctors to note BG managment and stability.

Jackmonkey ,

Simple function

Easy to use, easy to customize to your own needs.

Ps2u ,

Great app

Easy to use. Website very useful. wish all info was in App. Instead of website though.

MrMooae2001 ,

Great app

It is awesome to have a traveling log of my blood sugars that goes with me everywhere I go. Easy for my doctor to see what my levels are doing.

rthompbeld ,

Glucose Buddy, the best!

I was curious and doubtful about this program, but it made me a believer. I used to keep track in endless booklets, but now I do everything on my iPad & computer.

Artzealette ,

Almost perfect

Love the program. Fast entry. I just wish I could find a way to have the log put my BG's in categories for the doctor to compare all breakfast #'s,etc. Maybe, I'm just missing it?

Kathleen G ,

Difficult for Diabetes team assessment.

The general idea of this program is great. However, when printing out the results they are very difficult to assess at a glance what patterns are emerging on a daily basis. The long tedious list is time consuming to study and needs to be re-written onto another form. Very disappointing.

triton212 ,

Great app

The app is great. When you keep it updated with your blood sugars and you go to their website the A1C calculator is very close to what the doctor gets

garcuri ,

Great

This is one of the better apps I have used. Has all the features I am looking for as a Type 1 diabetic.

Just the banners are annoying since I did not buy the full app.

Diabetic Fish ,

Great app

Very helpful for tracking bg, charts are helpful too. Notes portion allows you to keep track of what you ate

or what type of exercise you did.

Bluvette67 ,

Few issues but overall good

I wish it didn't break the insulin up from the glucose. I would like to see it all in one screen. Otherwise seems ok

S-NC ,

Thank you

I was just recently diagnosed with diabetes, and I just want to say 'thank you' for your help in learning to track and manage my blood sugar.

Scootertsm ,

A truly great product

I can show my doc my progress and even show printouts of my BP and glucose along with notes. It works and keeps me healthy!

Bobby Biatchi ,

Mr

Use this tool to assist in moving your health in a positive direction. Knowledge is power. The recorded information should be shared with your doctor. Keep your BS low, exercise & live a long & happy life. EAT WELL!

A Gadget ,

Would give 5 stars if...

Very buggy. Crashes often. Won't save food selection from list - stays stuck on one selection after a few entries. Very frustrating on an otherwise awesome app.


Would love to see a directory of food with carb. amounts - would make it much more useful & quick.

Glen_E ,

Great app

This is a great app. I like the graphs. It helps me identify trends very easily. Much better than the app that came with my glucometer. Very easy to record readings and I also like that it records weight and pulse.

Rorieamy ,

EASY

It's much easier to keep track of my BG this way .It comes with my just like my glucometer and when I test my BG i put it in the ipod along with my medicine. I have to send reports in every week. It makes it easy to email them to your doctor from your ipod.

Navygoat ,

Glucose buddy

I've used this app for a month and it's a great aid in trending blood sugar. The link with a web page is very helpful. I use it in conjuction with Sparkpeople to manage weight-diet- fitness and blood sugar. I highly recommend it.

lukeeer ,

useful app

Very simple and useful app. I really like this app and it's FREE. I have only had it for 4 days and it's amazing. I successfully e-mailed it to myself and brought it to my doctor.


Great product.

Pmac96 ,

Perfect for now

I have had no issues, and find it essential to my current Type 1.5 management

Midnightltd ,

Simple to use great app

Just start the app and plug in the meter reading. It does not get much simpler than that. I like the capture button for the graph. Makes an nice image for emailing or printing.

Texas knitter ,

Easy to use App

Just started using the app and I can see that it will work well when I visit my physician. He'll be able to just scroll to view the logs.

Lhete ,

Very good

I just needed something practical to write down my sugar levels.... It's awesome, I enter the numbers, it send to my email and I print it. Just love it

redduck227 ,

My Doc loves the log

This is handy especially for me, was just diagnosed and still trying to figure out what is good and what not so much

Pianoetc ,

Very handy

When you can monitor your glucose level on a whim and sync it to your record in the cloud, you feel good! This is what GB does! Very satisfied with it!

IBMeWHOBu ,

Excellent APP (v3.7.0)

Been using this app for close to 2years now and haven't experienced any probs. This app is useful for documentation for my Doc during my yearly check up.

Rl Jeffers ,

Love the App

I am pre-diabetic and record my blood sugar. The App has really helped to keep awareness high of the BG level and impact of eating right and exercise.

Thanks very much for providing this great tool.

Djdickmartin ,

Drops of wisdom

This app does what you need it to do. It has replaced my pencil & paper and gives me a chart list as well as a colorful graph - who knew testing could be fun!

PatStas11 ,

Great App!

Very user friendly and easy to read. My doctor was very impressed with the graph. Been using it for over a year and I am very pleased with it!!

Keeta Pooh ,

New to tracking

I like the convenience of tracking on my phone and seeing the trends graph. Having a hard time figuring out some of the optional tracking tools.

CandyG ,

Nice App

This app is easy to use and it helps me keep track of my readings. It provides me with an average of my measurements which become handy for monitoring purpose.

Jcsdj ,

Nice tool

I like this tool easy to use and gives me my average. Much easier than tracking on paper.

Casidafam ,

It works

I like the fact that I can sync with my iPad and my phone and computer that is very helpful.

Jake Passaro ,

Good App

A simple and easy-to-use free app. It occasionally has problems syncing, but it doesn't happen often and it was fixed pretty quick.

EverEcho ,

So easy to use

I can add in information on the meds I'm taking, the exercising I'm doing, the food I'm eating as well as the blood sugar numbers. Everything my doctor wants to see in one place.

Mama Cucina ,

Love it ... BUT

I paid to turn off the resource hogging push advertisements, but they came back! Let me spend a few dollars more to turn them off? I think not.

Wobblygoblin ,

Great app

This is a great app. I love the ability to sync my readibgs. I print them out and give them to my doctor at my appointments and he thinks tha is very useful.


I just wish the Obama 2012 banner wasn't on it at the bottom.

NandoNando ,

Has helped me to monitor my condition!

Recently diagnosed w/ Type II, this app makes it easy for me to monitor and control by BG Level! Highly recommend it for anyone in need of such an app.

Harley1dawg ,

Basic Stuff

Gives you the ability to track your blood sugar. Would rate higher if items included would work without having to pay

Meas27 ,

Very Helpful

I was just diagnosed with gestational diabetes and this app has really helped me stay organized keeping track of my levels.

WTFCRITIC ,

Awesome!

Find a way to integrate with My Fitness Pay and Jog Log so I can scan foods and transfer workouts and and i would pay $20 bucks for the combo.

Marsie ,

Glucose Buddy

I like this app very much. The only thing I would prefer is I would like it to automatically separate the records by each day.

JoEllen Willis ,

Handy

App works well. I love that you can log other health stats--weight,BP, &more-- right in same app. Also lets you add notes to entries. Highly recommended.

30AGuy ,

Good App

If you decide to track food, have to be patient with initial input and selecting food. But once you have the foods you generally eat set up, works great

Bitty2889 ,

Love it!

I love this app! I think it Is wonderful because I can see what my levels were at weeks ago and see the graphs of how my levels change throughout the day.

Stipe1965 ,

Simplicity itself

So thrilled to have found this app, after being faced with managing my newly diagnosed condition. Simple, easy-to-use and includes full MS Excel integration. Makes life simple!!!

tedmohr ,

Excellent

Your Glucose Buddy is a great tool to build compliance for diabetic treatment. That should build a healthier patient and improve quality of life. Would like to contact the developer.

alvair ,

Nice app

I was surprised how easy to use. It does what it says and a lot more. Been using it for a week and a lot easier than little notes here and there. Very good for the price!

Shashawoman ,

Good App... Bad Marketing!

I love this app. Easy to track my BG and I love the graft feature. I can't wait to show it to my doctor at my next appointment.


I do not like the way the upgrade is presented as a gift but cost 6.99 and that all my entries will be lost if I don't accept it.

Wall56 ,

Glucose monitor

Really helps me keep track. I would recommend to anyone watching their levels.

Pink659 ,

Easy to Use

This app is easy to navigate and great to log information. I really like that you can add notes

HeloCaptain ,

Abandoned app?????

This app appears to have been abandoned by the developer.


No longer able to upload data from app to their sever, and the app has never been updated to use the full screen on newer iPhones.


I searched and found GLUCOSE COMPANION as a replacement. Awesome app! Free version does all most folks need.


It is such a good app, I had to reward the developer with the purchase of pay version ($1.99!). I find noting lacking in Glucose Companion.

👍👍👍👍👍


Glucose Buddy WAS as a great app when originally offered.


Now, it is way past due for an update. 💩💩💩👎👎👎


Can longer send data from iPhone to GB server, so logs can't be printed out.😒

carlosglz11 ,

Literally a lifesaver!

Was diagnosed with type 2 a week ago and I feel empowered with this app to take control of the process to reverse it!

traijan ,

Awesome

Absolutely awesome app and I don't generally at that about the vast majority of apps. So easy to use allowing me to enter everything I want in information. Great job devs!

Bobshoe1 ,

Great iPhone app, needs an iPad version.

I gave it 4 stars because it needs a better way to send data and an iPad app. Having said that, it's a terrific app and will get 5 stars the moment there is an iPad version.

Ellie2400 ,

Fast and Easy

This app makes it easy to track my glucose and easy to share my results with doctor.

bigdoggieb ,

Awesome app for diabetics

Easy to use and I have my phone with me all the time and can show my doctor anytime he needs it. Or if in hospital all of a sudden now they k ow my records

BillyK9Handler ,

Sweet but Straight

This is one " Sweet" app. I use this to keep my blood sugar straight. I combine this with the heart rate app and a foot nutrition app and I can completely control my day easily. This is the best BG = Blood Sugar app around.

Tom@rotanet ,

Great app

Very helpful in control of diabetes

Data gives encouragement

Very easy to use use it three or four times a day

RevJPerez ,

Great

This app has been able to keep me in check as I manage my blood sugar. This is a must have program.

Weatherman3456 ,

Easy

It's very easy and convenient to use! Now I just take my phone with me to the doctor and not my monitor or paper. It's very convenient

Beachbum8460 ,

Wonderful

Love this app. Only problem I have is not able to print my records for my doctor. Great for keeping up with my glucose.

Wilfredbrimley69 ,

Better than paper and pen

A lot easier for tracking than trying to write in little boxes in a small book. The forum is a great resource, too.

Casale240 ,

Excellent App for glucose control

Over 2 years now. Maps all trends to help you understand what works and what doesn't !

Remdog5986 ,

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best thing ever I've had diabetes for 6 years and this is the best thing I've ever tried I allready noticed a difference in my bg !!!!!! I would also recimend getting the gomeals app really helpfull :)

jcteacher ,

Nice app

Nice app. Has helped me keep track and control my t2

Use it to monitor daily counts which I can put into a spreadsheet and take it to my dietician. Also use it to give me a ballpark estimate of my a1c. Again good for control

Purpnan ,

Useful

Although this app is slower and more cumbersome than a couple others that also track glucose, insulin, exercise, etc., the ability to sync with the website is a plus.

OcalaJohn ,

Best glucose log book ever!

Easy to use. Great report generator. Easy to share with my doctor. Takes all the work out if keeping a log.

mcpcmp ,

GB tracking

This has been a great program not only for myself but for my doctor. He already knows my chart before I even see him. Love it MP

hiilei5 ,

Awesome!

Great way to keep track of my numbers, as well as when I took what medication and how much was taken...all in one single app.

Philyoh ,

Glucos Buddy

What else can you ask keeps a log and shows you a chart. That's all I need instead of writing it on a paper.

Badgers3rbv ,

Great Tool!

Makes my diabetes easier to manage. Also being able to email my results to my advisor is awesome too!

DelDBCA ,

Great app!

Easy to use. It's been so easy for me to keep track and I am really bad at it usually. I have a doctors appt soon and can't wait to show him!

DisappointedIndy ,

Newbie

I was devestated by my diagnosis 10 days ago. My doc gave me so little info. But this app has given me a sense of order in what seems so chaotic right now. Thanks!

Vtrocks ,

This app is so good

I am 15 and this app is has helped me out alot i just put in my blood sugars and email them toy doctor it is so user friendly

Soccermom777 ,

Great App

Coming from a blackberry with a less than working app, this is way better with more options! Great job!

Daddy'O 41 ,

Better than handwriting

I had to handwrite my log for years now it is easier than testing my blood. Great app!!

Jadenwaters ,

Helpful

This program helps bring peace of mind to my daughter's assist with new affliction and good communication between myself and the school. Thank you!!!!

irishfire50 ,

Won't upload, worthless app!!!

This was a good app until you try to upload all your data. I wrote support and still didn't get a response. Now I have to manually upload them so my doctors office can see my results to make changes to my pump. Don't waste your money on the pro version cause it's crap. Time to find a new app!

Moedoemax ,

Most used free app

Great for free app. Easy to provide numbers to doctor.

Allows many different time descriptions easily. Wish it would feed Apple health app. To fill in sugar relationship to other health entries.

Teacoffey ,

Good app

I have enjoyed logging my blood glucose levels using this app. I have had trouble being consistent, and having the log readily available has really helped me.

Psycleracer 01 ,

Excellent app for tracking blood sugar levels

Much more convenient than keeping a little diary

Wfasulo ,

Great BGL tracker!!

Very easy to use! Awesome sync to their website feature makes it easy to print and email! I recommend!

StephanieC3PO ,

Thankful

Without GO I would not have been able to keep track of my blood sugars and insulin doses while I was pregnant!!

John Peloso ,

Solid & Simple

The GB apps is a very easy way to record, sync, print, and graph your readings. Could use a little more customizability in graphing view - but well worth it. I highly recommend it.

nashville_pete ,

Good but not great

As a logbook, it's as good as paper and pencil but more convenient.


Trouble is, I expect an iPhone app to be more than just an electronic notepad.


My install crashes if I try to link to the calorie tracker software and I find the "choose medicine" function cumbersome. Give me a scroll wheel; don't make me go to another screen to choose, then back to the original screen to select.


Anyway, I'm still using it because it's better than not logging; a bad habit I got into and need to break.

Fredmetal ,

Good app for diabetics!!!

Great app for keeping track of glucose levels, everything syncs to a full website where you can print out charts/graphs showing the levels you've recorded...

Cearea ,

Fabulous

This has become an integral part of my diabetes control. I open this app before I even open my glucose testing kit.

cjc_3putt ,

Great app

App has been very handy to keep track of glucose levels. Is great to have on your iPhone to have with you all the time.

Lmclean58 ,

Lacks essentials

While this app allows tracking of everything I was looking for... They forgot to put in push reminders. When I log in food it should ping me 2 hours later so I can check my BG. If that feature is here... I can't find it. Will be continuing my hunt for the perfect app...

Rvsteve63 ,

Glucose Buddy

Works great for what I need! Record sugar and meds and have reports to give my doctor on a monthly basis. Syncs between iPhone and iPad. Sure beats keeping a log. Web site does not work well but app works great

neddih ,

Love it!!!

It's simple to use and one can put just sugar info or can be a little more elaborate. Out of all the diabetic apps I've tried this is the best

Orange grower ,

Glucose Buddy

This has been such a valuable tool to keep track of my blood glucose levels, I don't ever want to be without it. Thank You

RangerGirl1966 ,

Great App

This app is really easy to use. I love the fact I don't have to keep a handwritten log and can look at quick graph on how I'm doing!

LeBaron Family ,

Suggestion to make it a 5

If you could import information from my tester(pump) to this program so I could see it would make it incredible.

Tom1042 ,

Great info for my doctor

This app let's me show my doctor the history of my blood readings instead of handing him a sheet of paper. A great tool for all to use.

Rapalowe ,

I use it everyday. Great app

I'm on insulin so I check my blood sugar 4-5 times per day. Easy to use. I sync my results to the Glucose Buddy website and it is easy to export to Excel.

JesseJane68 ,

Easy to use

My doctor is thrilled with me using this app for tracking. I just take in my phone and she can quickly scan my numbers.

mamawallace ,

Better than log books

Easy to use

Stitch42 ,

Great app!

I've used this app for a little more than a year now, it is an excellent tool for any diabetic. Highly recommend.

i M Giddy ,

GREAT APP!!

I'm so happy I found this app. My Dr wants me to keep my BG under 120 and this app is great for tracking it. Not only that, I export the data with graph into Excel and bring a copy for the Dr to see and add to my records.

Madllama_real ,

Quick, easy and a breeze

This app is easy to use, full of information and extremely helpful.

Cartersville Alex ,

Very convenient!

Makes it easy to keep a record of your sugar levels

Spetznick ,

Use of glucose buddy

It helps me keep my numbers ready for doctors appointments. Easy in figuring out averages with graph. One criticism, program uses a lot of juice on phone.

Shaul Mac ,

Good App

Easy to use app for adding logs. One suggestion - ability to graph by entry type (before meals, after meals, etc). Otherwise I would've given 5 stars instead of 4 1/2

DLLB80 ,

Reliable and easy

I use this to track my levels only since I have gestational diabetes and don't need insulin right now. I use notes line to record what I eat.

thunderB II ,

Love it.

Easy to use. Charts are useful to take to Dr. Like using various devices for input and have all my data on the website.

Bobemc1653 ,

Test engineer

I depend on this app instead of a log book. My doctor loves this app too especially the graph that plots the highs lows and average. Been a great help to me in managing my glucose levels.

Hippiescene ,

Love this app!!

This is so much easier to record BG and Meds than my old logbook plus the Dr can read it and make proper insulin adjustments, unlike my sloppy writing!

Skadooey ,

Love it!

My child was just diagnosed last month. Follow up care is two hours away and always wants our logs. I LOVE using this app to quickly add in his BG #s and see the patterns on the graph. Keep up the good work!

fearlessfrank3 ,

Could be better

I am only interested in glucose log. it does the job but graphs of results could be much better. Pushing the expensive optional features is a minus

Crazy pretzel ,

Love this app

This is a great app. I told my doctor about it and she was really impressed it was helping me be more mindful of how what I eat effects my glucose levels.

Lindsjejxjwjsjejdj ,

Great app

One feature that would be cool is an instant timer that would set for 2 hours after you enter in a meal you ate to remind you to check your blood sugar.

Gnarldan05 ,

Love this app!

This makes tracking blood sugar quick and easy. Graphs give you great visualization of how well you are controlling your blood sugars,

Abyko3313 ,

Good but please add...

I love this app but I'd like to see the ability to view glucose level by time of day so I can adjust my pump accordingly. Also, please decrease the minimum value for glucose to 20. I am frequently in my 30s! Make these changes and it would be perfect!

jadakada ,

Glucose buddy

It is a wonderful product. I used it a couple of days ago and emailed my stats to my doctor. I highly recommend it.

HarleyMarine ,

Great app!

I use this everyday to help motivate me to stay healthier. My Dr. Loves it as well. I can now have answers to his questions about my progress at a seconds notice.

Jean SP ,

Neat app!

App is actually a bit more user-friendly than the website. They sync beautifully.

App Opinion Gal ,

So easy!

It's easy and exactly what I was looking for. Just wish it could magically link directly to my glucometer. Otherwise perfect.

Scouting Dad ,

Time saver

Saves time. All I have to do is take my bg level and log it. Easy to use especially when out camping or doing scouting activities with my son and his friends.

Zen44375 ,

Great app!

I use this everyday. My doctor is impressed by the data I collect for my blood sugar, blood pressure and weight. One of the most useful apps I have.

Jailerjo ,

AWESOME

As a newly diagnosed diabetic, this is a perfect tool. Super easy to use and track sugar levels. Allows me to email my Dr. recorded blood sugar levels so he can adjust meds accordingly. Thank you!!!

Phylski ,

Love it!

I find this app easy to use! It's an invaluable tool in my diabetes lifestyle. The only problem is when I switch phones data does not carry over.

rep860 ,

Makes journaling a breeze

What makes this a winner?

1. Excellent journal/log book feature

2. Easy setup

3. Easy to email logs to doctor

4. Easy to insert past readings into log


What I didn't like:

> 3.99 to remove ads


> cant email date ranges from log from phone. Have to send entire log or goto website to do this


> companion product (food tracker) although free was buggy and crashed more often than it worked

FritzD12 ,

Good app

Love the app. Easy for me to track and diagnose trends. Having a backup on the web was handy when my phone crashed.

Lwingram ,

Great tool!

I used to keep track of all my blood glucose, BP, weight, etc., on a spread sheet . This is much more convenient. Wish it could take the reading directly from my OneTouch Ultra, but that's a meter issue.

SnertK9 ,

Wow

This app is much better than a paper record! I always have my phone so I'll always have my glucose and medical logs.

Couch Lucky Thirteen ,

Handy

Good app for recording sugars anywhere. Handy for printing them out before a doctor's appointment. Have had trouble syncing-a lot of times it will say it cannot contact the server.

ccorv222 ,

Great For keeping me on track

Great app for keeping me on track. I'm able to write everything down in one place without the traditional log book.

Manongo ,

Sugar

It feels like you have to go through a maze to get where you want too. Too many hoops and oops. I give it half a star.

AbeF ,

Convenient & pretty much intuitive

I haven't used all the capabilities yet, but it does what I ask without complication

Peahen78 ,

Very helpful

This is one of the most useful apps on my phone, by far. It's so nice to be in the doctor's office and have all my numbers handy, without fumbling with (or remembering to bring) a notebook.

Lilysdad0507 ,

Thank you...

Makes emailing my DR so much easy then calling in numbers. Also love the graphs and seeing how I'm managing my diabetes. Been a true wonder of a help.

Lyndraper1216 ,

Tracking & reporting

This is a good way for me to email my reports to my healthcare professionals, however I recently lost all data on my phone and cannot retrieve my old logs.

smilkman ,

One of the few apps I use every day!

This app could change your life. Best way to track you sugars in a fun, easy way.

Larry The Plumber ,

Solid app..

Works for me.. Syncing feature is nice if ya dont mind paying for the it. :((

I did.. Develop a standalone Ipad app. The phone app looks crappy installed on my Ipad. Include a few more graphing features n u have 5 stars from me.

LeftCoastMan ,

Good. Not perfect

It does a lot of things well. I wish it would assume that the injection and blood test were at the event like "before lunch". But that's a nitpick. Graphing seems a bit less useful too.

Ryder3265 ,

I like the app

The GB is great. Helps me manage my diabetic life. The calorie counter is worthless. Wish I had my money back since I had to delete it. I guess it's like everything else, it's a money thang.

ccarpio ,

Great app but could be awesome

This is a truly great app, probably the best for its category in the store. It could be awesome if some simple thing like the ability to wifi print graphs and results could be awesome

Choppy24 ,

Good app, but

Unable to add my Freestyle Lite meter even though it's listed. I especially like the graph feature. Tried to get the carb count info but couldn't get the info for some reason.

l plus boys ,

Good start

This is a good basic app. I would like to sort graph by time of day category. It would also be nice to touch a point on the graph and drill down to the log for more detailed info.

I like the color codes on the edge of the log book.

Art2000F ,

Better than most

I like the integration with other apps. Able to zero in on key components of BG control easily.

Ab316 ,

Very helpful!

GB has been very helpful in managing my type 2 diabetes. I love that I can print logs for my doctor, and keep track of number trends!

miniengine ,

Only diabetes app I use

Great for showing trends and keeping my stat records. The web site and the ability to send PDF to dr. helps in deciding future treatments

MsEbonica ,

I love this App

This app has been the best thing for me in keeping track of my GB. My doctor loves the app and has recommended it to other patients. I live by this app.

MCF1234 ,

Gestational diabetes

This app has been so useful and easy during my pregnancy. I used it everyday and now every other day. Excellent!!!

Dr. SQAZ ,

ERH

Very easy to use for daily logging. I especially find the graphing feature helpful for tracking my sugars visually.

Chiller84 ,

It's the little things

Overall, I like the app and it's synchronization with the web site. Here are the Pros and Cons:


Pros: Easy to use, clear graphics, sync with web site. Can enter BG and insulin in one entry.


Cons: Only one type of graph? Some UI sloppiness. Occasional crashes.

ChinoHillsRocks ,

Easy and fast blood glucose logging

Quick logging with time stamps and pre filled notes.

Dads money ,

Cannot sync

I have been using this app for almost three years and have loved it. Now, for the last two weeks I cannot sync my logs. It cannot establish a connection to the server. Is anybody looking into this?!? You must be busy fixing it, because no one replies to repeated emails about the problem.

JandJK ,

Jujo5964

This is a wonderful application to keep track with my glucose readings. It's easy to use and view results.

Mik Ike ,

Easy to use

No complaints so far! Easy to track my glucose levels for my doc.

Himom8888 ,

Great

I have used this app daily for almost a year now. Pretty basic and maybe even a little boring, but very helpful in my life and very easy to use!!

Musicformyears ,

Some improvements needed

Being able to upload data to the Apple health app and directly to our Drs office would be nice .

Alaskan Duck ,

Excellent

Very quick and easy to use. I am finding more functions as I continue to use it.

Eagul ,

Does it all

Just what I wanted and solid, dependable app. Haven't used all the features but nice to know they will be there when needed.

Avid Reader07 ,

Helps me keep track

Easy to use and fast. I can check my BG anywhere. There is no need to carry a log with me.

Lloyd2 ,

New user

Very useful. Quick & easy to use, which is important for something to be used several times per day.

Diana6897 ,

Good

Awesome tool for keeping track of BG. Easy to print charts/graphs/logs from web site. Not good that you need to purchase some components that they consider extra such as food intake. Otherwise, I like it a lot.

craze582 ,

Very easy to track blood glucose readings

It's been easy to get used to using the app. I wish the food was just as easy to find and log. Tracking my Meds has been fairly easy as well.

Nj41143 ,

Awesome app !!!

I've had this app for a couple weeks and love it. It's easy to track my blood glucose level, track my progress and estimate my A1C.

blu_n_bru ,

Flexible

I appreciate getting to see all of my information in one view. This is a very fine app!

Seiglo ,

Easy

It is easy to use for the most part although the features could be more stream line.

Whiteside ,

Carol

I have been using this tool for about 6 months and I appreciate it. I use the notes section to enter blood pressure readings and that could be helpful I'm an upgrade.

Gregthediabetic ,

Great!

Makes tracking easy and nice to visually see any trends. Also nice to see past meals carbs for repeat meals/snacks. Can't beat the price. Thank you for this wonderful app!

Cre8veMind59 ,

I love my Glucose Buddy

I use to have a hard time remembering to write down my medications, my BG readings and what I ate... This app males it so much easier to maintain accurate readings and share with my Dr

seanroka1 ,

Easy and helpful

Great app. Helps me to keep on top of my glucose levels and my doctor loves the ease of looking at my iPhone for detailed info

ashleymeganlove ,

Great app

I'm using the app to track my readings for my endocrinologist because I have hypoglycemia. I love how easy this is and I can sync online.

Hot Scott ,

Great app for the diabetic

It records so many things and keeps logs. I wish it would graph by time type, such as "before dinner" so you could see trends and averages grouped. Also a PDF export would be cool.

Big Bubble Fun ,

Easy to Use

App is easy to use and you don't need to use a lot is features, just a log works.

nosaj128 ,

Easy to track

Simple to use and nice graph feature to share with your doc. No confusion

Mentalist13 ,

Good App

Very useful for diabetic measures. It is good to help track the records. It will be further good to enable taking other inputs with the glucose rate. Also having possibility to add only comments. I recommend strongly the acquisition of this App.

Fuzzyphantom1973 ,

Easiest way to keep track

This is the easiest way to keep track of my blood sugars

duffy05 ,

Great app!

I'm really enjoying this app and how easy it is to use. I like that I can email or print the log for my doctor. Is there a way to print the graphs? That would be awesome.

Health Partner ,

Mrs

This has been great for a newly diagnosed diabetic. I was able to show my doctor a graph that showed I was on track. I would have liked the weight tracking to be included

Thanks.

Big ;D Loves Credit Karma ,

Glucose Buddy is Great!

This is a great App to track your daily testing. I wish there was more of a seamless integration between the App and the add on Apps. Other than that it's great!

D-Rob61 ,

Very helpful!

GB truly helps me track my levels, and since knowledge is power, it gives the power I need to combat this disease.

Padre8772 ,

Great for those recently diagnosed

Really good for helping learn to track. More than I understand but the learning seems easy. Richard+

Wheezie70 ,

Love this app

Easy to use. Keeps track of glucose, meds, foods and more. Makes things easier to discuss with my Doctor.

Messianic Mike ,

Free and easy to use

This product is free and easy to use. I like it better than my droid app for my smart phone.

Clevner ,

Love it but....

Would like to see the print feature do the whole chart and not just a screenshot.

GodSRachel ,

Wonderful

So far I love the app. The only thing I haven't been able to figure out is connecting to the food app. That doesn't seem to be working yet.

Delaware Dan ,

Superb

What a fantastic application - it makes you remember to test just by its existence - wish I had this one years ago. Thanks ! ! !

ZazouGirl8 ,

Bad service

I purchased the Pro edition a year ago. Backed everything up. Used online and everything. My phone died and I had to get a new one. Now they are requiring I pay again to use the features I paid for in the past. The updates apparently don't work on new phones.

Knowun ,

I second HappiHappi's comments.

I see that the graphs are due back in 3.1. It was foolish to release 3.0 without them.

No need for My Harbour...Open to logs for efficiency.

Appearance and readability are a step backward from the earlier version.

App itself is still valuable but in need of a return to the benefits of the original.

moppin64 ,

Great

I bought the premium to keep track of my Blood Pressure. I have had a stroke at 40 and now I'm 47 and don't want another one.

mlplouff ,

Clear, simple, terrific

Easy to use. Keeping good track of your blood sugars will change how you live with diabetes. My #1 app.

Bedros Afeyan ,

Life saver

Communicating with doctor and getting fast feedback is made easy with GB. It is great to track progress through charts as well.

Jb1129 ,

Glucose buddy

Great system, I actually enjoy keeping track. Can't wait to print it out and take it to my doctor.

Nascarick3 ,

Excellent Log

Keeps the average of all my readings ,let me keep track of when I made my last reading. best free app yet!

Wordie53 ,

Easy to track my numbers!

Super easy to keep track of my numbers. Graph feature is cool.

Hadwilo ,

Works well

The title says it all. This program works really well and allows me to email numbers to my diabetic counselor.

rajit polambardo ,

Glucose Buddy

This whole diabetes thing is new to me I am forgetting to do my meds a lot and forgetting to document my Bloodsugars this app helps me greatly in reducing my forgetfulness !

T 2 the Opher ,

Forcing account creation

Ive used this app for a while to track my glucose, and it’s a great app for it. My gripe is that now they force you to create an account. Without doing so, you cannot access your records or use the app at all

Nomad890 ,

Memory

Great program. Now, if only the programmer could find a way to make me remember to take care of myself.

Beff G ,

Really helpful

This had helped me with my GD during pregnancy. Could not have made it through without it.

Willie5694 ,

Maybe pro is better?

The UI is terrible, very NON- user friendly, have to type everything in, nothing is pre installed. If you use this app to log, you'll never eat you'll be too busy trying to deal with this clunky interface.

cdlt60 ,

Excellent!!

I'm new to diabetes when it comes to myself and this app has made it so easy to track my sugars and identify trends!

Aimloren ,

Great app

Easy to use. Can also track meds and food. Great to email results to dr and can jot notes too.

Vader2112 ,

Great Product

Helps me every day to stay on track. I highly recommend it!

Joe in Arkansas ,

Really helps!

I use this all day, everyday. When I go to the doctor I just hand him my phone. Works great!

Daddy's Little High Schooler ,

Helpful

It's the extra reminder I need to get all my test in not to mention my blood sugars are more equal and I'm not having crazy ups and downs as much anymore

Vfggghgfdx ,

It does it well.

Simple to use plug your numbers and and it tracks it all for you.

Footmon ,

Easy to use for blood glucose

I needed it for BG, was already using another app for diet. Would like both in the free version but tracks BG well.

sfisher973 ,

Works well

Like the graphing ... There seems to be a minor problem entering my meter type on the Touch, the model setting keeps resetting - but that's not of much importance.

FoxyRN55 ,

Type 2

Great tool to monitor BS! Only thing that could make it better would be a weight log.


Thanks for making this available.

Billy Birdfan ,

Great App!!

This app is awesome!! No need to write everything down. No worry about forgetting to take my meds. Reports and graphs to chart my progress for my doctor. I love it!

😍😍😍😍😍 Glucose Buddy is a very convenient (my phone is always nearby), useful App. It's easy to use, I definitely prefer it to the old pen and paper log.

Zzipiperyin ,

Good app

Great app. Helps organize things. I haven't tried other apps so can't relate. I wish it would let me do ounces or serving size instead of grams. It would also be great if I could put in my daily allowances so I can watch my nutrient intake.

Naninoh ,

Great app!

I have tried many diabetes apps and found this one to be the most user friendly. Great job!

Easy

This app is very easy to use and it's not overwhelming. Everything you need is at your fingertips.

Really useful and easy to use. I can download and send to my PCP. My phone goes where I go and so does Glucose Buddy. Highly recommend.

Alxhart ,

Handy Dandy!

I would have given this nifty, time-saving app 5 stars but did not because of the synch server issues that seem to occur often.


Thanks to the creators/developers!

Would like to see

I would like to see a way of entering & graphing my weight also. I would also like to have an area to make a note.

JohnBlunt ,

It's a good concept but ...!!!!!

Love the ease of the concept but

It will just not sync with my iPad,

So I am sticking to using it with

my iPhone 7Plus. I had emailed

Tech support and they have failed to reply. I would go pro if I could sync. Where is tech support.?

Turtle 1054 ,

Awesome

I'm really new to being a diabetic. But this app is priceless to me. It keeps me informed of how my level is I think every one needs this.

GBarbour ,

The Rev Canon

Does everything I could ask for except allow me to set the graph range so I can personalize the settings. A bit expensive when combined with all the add ons but....

Can't sync data to website!

The app used to sync for me with the website up until 2010. I've since downloaded the app and used the same account and it still can't connect to the server. What's up?

Mister Purple Paul ,

Solid app

Does what is says ... Allows me to keep track of my blood sugar levels ... Not going to pay for the extras so I can't utilize the full potential of the app ...

Witchey1 ,

GB

Since I am my moms sole caregiver, this had been a big help! I can send her levels to the doctor along with notes and observations, such as she bought ice cream and she can't erase the remark. It keeps her honest;)

App review

Great app could have an additional scan application to read the bar codes to make recording food items quicker

atov ,

Great app even for prediabetics

I use it mainly to track my blood sugar and activity. The graph is a great way for me to see how I'm doing overall.

SF.2 ,

Glucose buddy

Was a great app now only good. Badly needs updating. Needs to be able to sync.

Still it still works great on my iPhone to help me track sugars. Now can it all with my iPad?

Spinstergp ,

Easy & quick to input and I really like the graph feature.

Katalina42 ,

Great app for diabetes

I use this app every day to put in my numbers and it syncs also to the web

gsghert01 ,

worked fine for a while

This was great for syncing for a couple of months. I'd encountered intermittent upload problems but now nothing will upload. The only reason to but the paid version is for that feature. Sync no work, app is junk.

Dawn Juanita ,

Awesome!!

This app is amazing. I just use it to keep track of my daily blood sugars. I love it. Haven't had any issues what-so-ever.

aka123 ,

Great App HORRIBLE USER INTERFACE

This is a great application but it has one of the unfriendly difficult to use user interfaces. The new version just got worse than the last one. The author is basically testing out his programming skills on this application. I don't need a stupid "Yah" every time I enter a reading. Overal too many things to do to enter data.

richlam ,

GB is absolutely the best buddy that every diabetic should have.

It,s so easy to use and is the best way to show your progress to your Doctor. Kudos to the developers!

Rgchad ,

waytooseriousguy ,

GB

This app helps to keep track of what is going on with me. Since I am so new to diabetes, this helps to explain how what I eat and drink effects me

Right Wing Nutter ,

Free version does what I want

It takes my blood sugar entries & graphs them over time. So I can tell whether various dietary indiscretions push it up and by how much.

navvet83 ,

Very handy!

Makes tracking your glucose levels a snap!

cshady12 ,

Get this app!!!

Luv this app!!!! I like how I can print out my levels to take to my doctor appointments. I use this app everyday!

Darylb65 ,

Very good app

All is fine just wish you could send to an email as PDF or docx

hear2talk ,

You get what you pay for

Syncing is unreliable. Half the time it fails. Can't filter logs by event type either on the app or on the web site. Fix those things and its 5 stars!

MikeL_29 ,

Works as advertised.

Wireless transfer to the software program would be nice, but it's very helpful as is.

MLA628 ,

Great App

My Dr loves that I keep track of my levels with this app. Makes it easier for her to track my levels.

turtlepurple19 ,

Super-useful app

I am not diabetic but am undergoing IV total parenteral nutrition (TPN) during which I must monitor my glucose levels. This app has been a great tool for my purposes.

Smmmadden ,

App is okay but buggy

Adding new log with BG, Med, Food and activity all in one log entry doesn't save all the data. In addition, if you open the log history there is no record of anything other than BG #. Emailing logs also doesn't include food or activities.

Kat herb ,

Great tracking tool

Very helpful in tracking my BG levels and keeping notes.

tbrodzel ,

Great app

Very helpful. Easy to use and I really like printing out my numbers to show my doctor.

Ron in Seattle ,

Upgrade message?

Helpful app, but when I upgraded it still gives me upgrade messages all over the app as I use it. Why? I've already paid for it. It's at a minimum misleading marketing.

Wagner12 ,

My doctor loved this app!

On my recent visit I gave her my phone so she could check my progress. She loved it.

Gus DJ ,

Great App

This app is wonderful, it help me keep my blood sugar in check. I wish I could give it 10 stars.

moeman73 ,

Works!

I like the app, would be nice if when you log new results it would start with numerical entry first. But it works and is easy to use.

Naina09 ,

Could be a bit better

If it had some sort of menu with carb averages instead of guessing all the time.

ksk120 ,

The new layout is great but...

The new layout is great but I really would love the graphs back.

Aside from that, this is the best gloucose tracking app in the app store.

When graphs are back...5 stars!

I use several times daily and appreciate the organization it brings to my life w my docs.

Glucose Buddy

Easy to use, simple to add new data and add comments with testing. The most stress free part of my new life as the new superhero with "fingertips of steel"

Venom playa #17 ,

Awesome app!

I really like this app , it has made it easy for me to keep track no matter where I go . I have not worked with it much so can't comment on all options this app has to offer. I love the graph ! Thx :)

andre379 ,

Update Crashed my Itouch and Iphone :(

I loved this program, was using it for about 4 months now. However, the update crashed my Iphone and my Itouch. I restarted both but Glucose buddy will not load on my Itouch any more and it takes forever to load on Iphone. I also lost all my data, shame on you guys.

joezen777 ,

Good

Downloaded because Manny is cool. Though anyone on insulin should know their peak hypoglycemic times post injection. Humalog is 2 and 4 hours post. Lantus is 5 hours post.

Kbamjazmonymoans ,

Can't record over 500

Just dx'd. Trying to get bg under control. won't let you enter blood sugar over 500. Also, entered the meds and food eaten, but it never seemed to record this info- only the blood sugars

Mustang59 ,

Outstanding APP!!

EZ to use and makes record-keeping quick and readily available.

Benjaminsa ,

Great tool

We use it daily and we love the charts. Way easier than trying to devise our own charts.

Pretty much a well thought out data base. Several categories. Logical input parameters.

SisakisAwesome ,

Yay

Very helpful in keeping track and logging bg levels. Graph also helps with problem times and patterns..

No condemnation ,

I like the chart so I get a visual look at how I'm doing. I used to keep a database in Microsoft Excel but this is much easier.

edbutryn ,

I use this to track my blood sugar only, it is much easier for me than a paper log. Can't wait to show the doc.

Very useful App. Made me more willing to check and record more regularly (as I should). I really like using it.

Really good beginning spot for someone newly diagnosed. Ads are a pain but what you get with "free". I'm in first week of meds and diet so time will tell.

LJY37 ,

Glucose Buddy

This app is useful, easy to use, and is helping me keep on track in controlling my blood sugar level.

Mcjames45 ,

Good program

I found it to be very helpful in helping me to stay on track, but calorie tracker add-on program needs to go back to programmers for debugging.

Azrael120170 ,

Good teaching tool.

As a newly diagnosed diabetic, this tool has been great in helping me learn about the foods I eat and the effects on my blood sugar levels.

Adreenie ,

Really great app

jon-eagle ,

Good app for history use

Easy to use and able to print out history for medical use.

Darthninja ,

It's good needs more free features

It's helped a lot, however it needs more not just a graph but a way to see all the data in a neat organized place. It should show highest lowest and overall average.

jojovg ,

Love it!

As a newly diagnosed type2 diabetic, i was very happy to find a tool that is easy to use. I plan on sharing this information with my diabetes educator.

Jmiklosh ,

Fantastic app

LBoogz415 ,

boneseye ,

Easy to use

Recently diagnosed and this has helped me to monitor my progress.

Dschofield91 ,

Easy to use.

I really like it is easy to use but I don't understand why it won't sync for backup. I've created an account and still can't get it to sync.

Gage Parker ,

Are these guys in business any more?

After upgrading my iPad to iOS 8, the "pro version" (which was an in-app upgrade in 2011) stopped working. No response for a week from support email address. The "user support forum" also has not been working for at least a week.

Lcmhenry ,

So far so good.

Like that when I go to log it is easy to see where my blood sugar has been running. I also like the graphs.

Spot0834 ,

Great app

milootisjpm ,

So far so good

Trying to find a way to log all readings to show up on the graph. Dr. wants more than an average. Dr. wants to see readings specifically 2 hours after meals.

JackBlack4Me2 ,

Good App

I am a recent insulin dependent person. I needed to keep a log for the Doctor. This is much easier than paper & pen.

Saanendoah ,

Great app

Everything I need to track my BG. Fast & easy to use. Only wish "Lose It" & BG worked together.

It's easy to use and works very well and I like the ease of using log with comments.

wscottf ,

Great

I like this app it's simple and easy to use. I only wish the online sync between devices wasn't so expensive.

pngscuba ,

Pretty average

I have (and use) several diabetes apps. This one is average. No spell check in notes. Database export mixes entry types and app can be very slow to load on anything other than a 4s.

Thomas.Glen ,

Love it!

Awesome app! So easy to use, and I love the ability to note "before lunch, after dinner" etc by scrolling a wheel.

jrostan ,

Very good

I carry my phone anyway, it's better than carrying a log too. One glance at all my results is great.

TheAxeman ,

It's in the blood

Great program. Combined with the food app, it helps keep my diabetes under control. A real life saver for this eventual death sentence.

sunshin0514 ,

kduda001 ,

Glucose buddy - easy way to start the day

this app makes it quick and easy to record your BG. I love it!

BS1946 ,

Ok but quirky

The app does an ok job of tracking blood glucose and associated Meds. But could be easier to use. Features found in other free apps are for purchase upgrades and the ads are excessive, even for a free app.

Koba0001 ,

Doctor impressed

Went to doctors office this morning. He was very impressed with the charting feature and used it to determine a adjustment to script!

Rb

Petite too ,

Like it

This is the only BS app I have tried but I like it. Would like a little more room to write a note

Serious sync issues

Avg app - needs account set up, then validation ... Talk about unnecessary oversight , needs sync - still out of sync between web entry and this iphone app - Very poor .. Even after 1/2 hr after validation cant get to forums - stopped and restarted app - crashed once entering BG meter-type

BullFam ,

Toni in PA ,

Help!

When I enter a log info to meds, the app always pops up with "There was nothing to save." what step is missing?? Please answer this; I'm

cigar_stub ,

Very Useful & Easy

Easy to use, very functional. Graphs give a very easy overview. I'd pay for this one if I had to.

Garh! ,

"In App" purchase goes bye bye if you have to restore your phone

Bought the BP/WT premium addon, but I had to restore my phone. Now I don't have that feature anymore. I'm certainly not going to buy it again. I'll just look for another application that fits my needs.


Lesson learned. NEVER buy in-app premium addons.

JdotNabisco132 ,

Greatest thing ever

Honestly my life has become easier after I got this app I love it

I love this app. It is easy to use and I love the way it graphs your readings. It makes managing my diabetes so much easier.

Magellan1950 ,

Very good app!

This app is really good. It would be perfect if it could track food intake too. It claims to sync ( for a fee ) with a sister app for this, which is free but doesn't work.

ThisYearsModel ,

Excellent tool

This app is wonderful, and a huge help to me in controlling every aspect of my diabetes. I recommend it highly.

C. Wilson ,

Big berg 58 ,

Good log book, but....

Great for tracking numbers, but crash my iPod when I try to email my numbers to my Doctor. Please fix, very frustrating!

Moe51 ,

I wish it would sync to its server.

The app works well enough but I have trouble syncing it to GB's server. GB's site has many great options to look at the logs but what good are they if you can't get your readings there? Input twice? Too bad!

cfsw ,

Syncing issues

It will not sync more often than not. Under "diagnostics and usage" on my iPhone, it says it has a bug. Support does not respond to emails. If it would work, I would give it 5 stars because I like everything else about it.

If you enter a taken name you lose your whole post ,

Platform to buy add-ons

The app does basic things but if you want more (like diet tracking), you have to buy premium content. The one graph is useful, but the is only the one graph.

Fatima A ,

Great app!

I was recently diagnosed with type 1 and I did research and tried different apps and this app is truly my "buddy".

Lazule ,

Great for keeping track

Great app for keeping track of my bg levels; but, it does crash on me fairly often.

Very good app :)

D&B's music ,

Unreliable App

I used the for 2 weeks and noticed many times it would duplicate my entires. I would go on line and fix them. I spent more time trying to get my numbers correct on the app than entering them. Yes it is free but I guess you get what you pay for. NOTHING A huge waste of time and effort.

Allyson80 ,

Great!!

This app has been very easy to use and a great help for monitoring my blood sugar. I haven't tried the add-on apps yet.

Seen better programs but, as apps go very good for sugar.

Link to the food part doesn't work. And not as good.

Exercise part needs a LOT of work.

Fully functional trial, better than the competition.

p2bilt ,

Has developer abandoned this app?

Once upon a time a great, focused app, it now appears the developer can't be bothered to pay for adequate server coverage or support the app. A real shame. This app could be great again but right now it's circling the drain.

Better than a log book. Glad I have this.

Review

I like using Glucose Buddy. I even introduced it to my doctor. But the Calorie Tracker addition is a joke. Not worth the $2.99 cost! I have already stopped using it. A very bad decision on the part of The company. I wish I could get my money back!!!!!!

Chardebmol ,

Best I found

Good you can keep everything in oneplace and you can do it without wifi

Primosp ,

Great app but....

I would give it it's fifth star if we are able to link all out data from iPhone to iPad

Leeshots Photography ,

Great Tool!

Been using this product since the very beginning. Great tool and great support.

Jim Leon ,

Hidden undisclosed cost

Did not appreciate going through the tutorial, only to find that an integral portion for me as a diabetic was going to cost 2.99. You could have been more up front and ethical. Maybe I would have sprung for the cost, but I don't like to be ambushed. BIG FAIL.

newtoy4her ,

Great App

I'm a newbie type 2, needed something easy and simple to use. This app works great for me.

Never really like this app it always felt awkward when using it. There are entirely too many icons for too many worthless operation it's clumsy and it's awkward. There are others that are much better.

FRBusa ,

Very useful

Much more pleasant than writing a log. Efficient and fun to use.

DONINSEATTLE ,

OK but....

The app is buggy. The section on the type meter one has does type OK, but does not accept the model. The add-ons are expensive and the reviews state that they don't work well.


My spreadsheet does as much and is less expensive.

Perfect integration with the web. Add-ins are expensive though. Two-way sync should be included for free, not a 13 dollar up charge.

Companion App - CalorieTracker - crashes constantly

Just thought you should know - the companion/integrated app for calorie tracking does not work at all - keeps crashing. Would be awesome if it actually worked.

ArtemisBlack37 ,

Glucose tracker

Mediocre. Tracks basic functions but that is it. You cannot change the units for food input. The app is always in grams. Food input function is difficult to use and the log is sloppy.

A lot to track, but it's ugly!

This app helps with tracking, really it does...but they really need to update the interface because it feels like I've stepped backward to ios5. The old iPhone style is not appealing to me at all.

This is a great app for me. I can keep a running log of my bs. I don't use a lot of apps so this one is very easy to use.

This app would be far better if it had food info and you could enter the food, like 1 apple medium raw and have the app com up with number of carb grams. There are apps out there with this data. The app overall is not intuitive.

Osama Amjad ,

Very helpful

I start using this app it is very important tool

VTNH ,

Scam

The whole point of this "free" app is to get our info onto a server so that it can be sold to pharmaceutical companies - hence the excellent customer service for a free app - the more people they get on their server, the more money they make off of our personal information.

angrypandadomo ,

Back on Track =)

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU for creating this app. It's been wonderful and such a help. I was diagnosed Type 2 in 2006. I started doing everything as I was supposed to, logging my food, logging my activity, logging my meds... after about 6 months into it my life got a little more hectic and i kept forgetting my notepad. At the time I logged everything by pen & paper. Eventually I started forgetting my notebook, eating on the go, forgetting my meds, etc... Well 2 months ago my old Treo started dying a slow death. I started phone shopping and my husband & my sister were both iPhone 3G owners so they kept pushing the iPhone. I was so against the iPhone just because it was so mainstream and everyone around me had one. One day as I'm watching the 2 of them talking about apps & seeing the commercial saying they got an app for everything, I started to wonder... I already had an iTunes account so I went looking for a diabetes management app. Sure enough I found Glucose Buddy, and much higher rated than even paid apps!! I went out and bought an iPhone3GS that day and Glucose Buddy was the first app I installed =)


Of course being the first app I installed I quickly started logging everything in from the beginning of the day. Another big THANK YOU, allowing someone with high blood sugar to use this. I'm just starting out again and while my readings have been going down I was still teetering on a 300mg/dL morning reading. I couldnt believe the comments on other apps that maxed out at 199. I mean I know we're all SUPPOSED to be on track but really, some of us go thru a period of defeat and "I don't care" and end up with really high blood sugars again. Glucose Buddy has helped keep me motivated. I always have my phone with me, it's on the front page & I can discreetly log information rather than waiting to do it later.


My only suggestion at this point is the meds dosage. I'm a Type 2 and I'm currently maxed out on 2 oral meds (10mg Glipizide & 1000mg Metformin) and insulin. Maybe I'm not getting it with the units, but I would like to be able to enter my oral meds in the mg dosage. Since I've started WW my morning is still high but my during the day readings are getting closer to normal... a couple times even low. As I work with my doctor to adjust my meds, I find it easier to use the same dosages as the pills are labelled. Sometimes I take 500 mg Metformin and 5mg Glipizide, but then I forget, did I count the 5 mg as 1 unit or 10mg as 1 unit? You see what I mean? I currently just label it in notes, but I thought this would be easier especially as people like me started actually managing it better and slowly ween ourselves off the meds =)


Thank you again for such a great app! Look forward to your blogs!

iGearey ,

Best available

I'm a type 2 diabetic with large gl fluctuations. I tried all the free/lite iPhone monitoring tools and have found this one to be the best for the one most important reason to me ease of use. It has a no help needed user interface. Entering the basics 3 to 5 times a day has to take minimal effort or I won't use it. You can easily email the log to your doctor. You can also take a snapshot of the gl graph which is a good companion to the log so your doctor can zoom in on food and activites or lack thereof on the dates in your log that had the most fluctuations or highest gl. Your log can be synchronized with the server so you get the sense it won't get lost if something happened to your phone. I don't have any experience with recovering after a lost phone but the sync always goes smoothly for me. It's certainly fast with a wifi connection which I have at home.

In an ideal world I'd have given the app 4 stars for lack of editting of 2 lists the list of medications and list of foods. I give this app 5 stars simply for the fact that it works reliably, is easy to use, and provides a wonderfully easy way for me to track the basics that matter so much. Oh yes and it's free! If they charged for the web service I wouldn't use it but if they added some compelling additions such as integration with medical records on HealthVault or Google Health and the integration actually worked in a useful way I'd certainly pay for a premium version. I can imagine this app evolving into a killer app that is accessible from the iPhone for convenient data entry and full feature graphs and editting on their web site.

An enthusiastic 5 stars! And no I don't work for the company that makes this app.

The developer has abandoned the app. Don’t download!

Not bad... Not great

Does a good job for tracking my blood sugar levels, but the app seriously needs an update. It looks dated, with the older than iOS 6 graphics.

Good start, but it is more complex now and less efficient

I love this app - I need this app. First of all, thank you, Mylestone Health, again and again for creating this app, for giving it to us for free, and for continuing to work to make it better.


With that being said, I almost feel guilty giving you a three star review this time around. But, I am sorry to say, this version is not quite as good as the original (which is 5+++ stars all the way).


The facelift is a good start. However, it has some drawbacks. Here are the positives (+) and negatives (-) to the new version:


- The "my harbour" page is unnecessary and slows me down: I don't really need to see 'my info'; 'settings'; and 'goodies' everytime I open the app. These are categories I rarely use - I access them to set up my app and hardly look at them again. They can go on the bottom of the screen. No need for a separate page for them. Better yet, go back to the original design where GB always opens to the logs page.


- When I open GB, it is always to add a log or check my logs. That's why the original design worked so well. Once GB started, I had all my logs displayed, and I only had to push the "+" button to add a log. It was quick and efficient. Please go back to the original design with the log as the startup page and put the "my harbour" buttons on the bottom of the page. (Redundant point, but I felt it needed stressing)


- Having the 'add log' button on its own makes the app more complex than it was. The original was best because it was simpler: basically, the logs are like a list, and it is good to see the list first before you add anything to it. Having the 'my harbour' page open first and then having the 'add log' button on its own is somewhat illogical. Its like you have this list going and you're writing things down before seeing what you already had there. I always double check my last entry to make sure I don't do multiple entries of the same thing.


+ The new 'add log' page was a bit confusing at first, but took only a couple of seconds to re-learn. I think it's great! The number pad makes entering values so much faster. Good job!


+ The 'quick sync' button with the number of logs needed to be synced is also perfect. You should put the following buttons on the bottom of the logs screen: quick sync; logs; testing/graphs; settings (which contain my info and goodies). And again, have GB open with the logs screen like it used to.


- The contrast, graphics (text), and colors on the new version is not as good as the old version. The gray background for the logs makes it difficult to read. It is also rather unpleasant for the eyes and not as bright. And the text display is not as nice either. Please bring back the old look of the logs. They were easier to read because the letters and numbers were the same size. Also, the white background with black bold letters is much easier on the eyes. And, like other reveiwers, I too miss the picture graphics that represent the type of entry. Overall, the look of GB is now darker, dimmer, and just not as pretty.


-- Not so much gray, please. All that grayness makes me not want to look at the app anymore. White background for text is best. Black background for buttons area. (Another redundant point yes, but needed stressing).


+ Much easier to edit logs entered.


+ Got rid of the multiple checks problem on my food list. Thank you!! [In the old GB, I had entered a set list of foods I often ate and whenever I selected a food, the check never disappeared. So, after a couple of food log entries, I would end up with three checks in the food list, making some foods un-selectable.]


So, three stars for version 3.0. But the app itself and its functionality and usefulness deserves ten+ stars!


For those who are contemplating getting GB, don't let my critique above discourage you. Only the look and feel of the app has changed with the new version, but its practical use is still the same. This app is a necessity for any diabetic who wants to take firm control of their blood sugar levels. This version just shows that it's creators are still working to make it better. Also, the app comes with really good tech support! Now that's a major plus. The people who made this care about their product. I emailed them with a problem and they got back to me the same day - and were very helpful and courteous too. So, get the app, use it, and just wait a bit. I'm sure they'll make the next version better.

maiken2051 ,

Good app, no support

I'll start by saying that GB has a lot of great functionality for anyone who needs to monitor blood glucose. You can enter sugar measurements, meds, activities, and food from any of your iDevices and the combined logs will be synced to the GB website. The app has a useful "how am I doing" graph and you can view your logs online or export them. If you give your web login information to your health care team they will be able to track your progress in near real time.


Now for the bad news. The app locks up frequently, I'd say about 1 in 5 times that I try to use it, both on my iPhone 4S and my iPad 3. Of course, the lockups usually happen when I don't have time to futz with the app. Further, the web synchronization fails 1 in 4 times, displaying "cannot connect to Glucose Buddy server' after 90 seconds. The data isn't lost, you can try again and again until it works, but it's decidedly annoying, especially for a $13 annual charge.


I like the app enough that I'd rate it 4 stars even with the bugs, except for the fact that GB has no support whatsoever. As of the time I write this review the app has not been updated in more than a year. Emails go unanswered and the support forums consist of people posting the same bugs over and over again followed by other users replying, "yes, it's broken." Since there is no evidence that the company is still functioning, or that it is interested in supporting the app, I cannot really recommend Glucose Buddy, despite its many nice features. You have no way of knowing if the web site will suddenly vanish, taking all of your logs with it. All that seems certain as of now is that the bugs will keep on bugging you...

New app is horrible

Super complicated. Doesn't make sense. Old app was simple and easy to use. Will be deleting this one

Elmas ,

One word: tedious

The app is very complete, but it becomes too tedious too soon.


Let's say you want to record your morning glucose. Click the app button to start. You're in the main menu. You then have to click the "+" button to add a new entry. The next screen is the "Add Log" screen where you have to choose the "Glucose" tab. Next, if you are not entering the glucose reading from right now, you have to do it manually by clicking on the "date/time" tab which will take you to the "change Date/Time" screen where you use a scroll wheel to select the specific date/time. Once you do that, you have to click the "add log" button which will take you back to the "Add Log" screen. Once you are here, you select the time of day and your glucose value on the scroll wheel and then hit the save button. If you want to add any notes, click on the notes button, which will take you to the notes screen, add your note and then hit the "Add Log" button to record it. Once you do that, you click save.


Now let's enter what we're having for breakfast.


Click the "+" button to go to the "add Log" screen, select the "Food" tab, select the date and time (repeat the process from above if you 're entering data from before -as if you're are entering this info AFTER you had breakfast 45 minutes ago- and not for "right now". Click on notes tab, if you want to add any notes which will take you to the notes screen, write your note then hit the "add Log" button to go back to the "Add Log screen", now hit the food tab to go to the food screen (where you can add specific food items you eat by clicking the edit tab - this is a great feature), select the item, click the "add log" button to go back to the "add Log" page, then using the scroll wheel select the type of food it is (breakfast, lunch, dinner...) and then select how many grams of carbs it contains. Now click the save button to go back to the "Add Log" screen.


Then you have to do pretty much the same thing for the medication you are using or for the insulin you're going to take to cover your meal. If you still have the energy to exercise, you have to go through pretty much the same process again for that too.


Now I eat 3 times a day, inject 4 times a day and exercise once a day. That's at least 8 times I have to go trough this whole production. I think life is too short for this very complete but annoyingly tedious app. The other apps I have tried aren't any better btw. At least this one is free so you can give it an honest try.

NYCgiirl ,

Nice Start but useless for now

1. Without charting/graphing, this is a useless app

2. What's with the food list? First of all, the only unit option is grams. I don't weigh my food out - I measure it in Tablespoons/Teaspoons. Yes, I measure carbs in grams, but this is not a carb measurement. It would be nice if you added a carb log, too. But as far as the Food log, please add Tablespoons, Teaspoons, cups, pints, etc. That would be the only way this works. Also, I don't want a separate log for every food item that I eat at breakfast. When I add all my checked foods, I want to add them all to one meal. The way you currently have it set up is completely useless. I want to pick all my foods (as another use stated here, give me the option to leave the checked items as a default, since I eat many of the same foods every day), check them off, and have them added as a list of what I ate for that meal. Same goes for 'activities".

3. Why do you have "logs" and "add log" as two separate pages? Simplify it. When I open a Logs page, there should be a plus sign in the upper right corner to add a new log.

4. What's with "My Harbour"? As other users have stated, we don't need this as an opening page. When I open the app, I'm usually going to be entering new data and, less often, checking my history. Anything else is a least-likely activity. So why put it right on the opening page? Put Settings, Synching, and Goodies along the bottom strip of the screen and I can get to them when I need them, which is rarely. And My Info can be part of Settings.

5. Quick Synch - What is this? Before I synch, tell me what I'm synching and what it's synching to, please.

6. The email feature is currently useless. I don't want to simply print out a list of everything I've logged, I want it in a format that I can use to chart and track. Put it in a CSV format or similar so that I can bring it up in Excel and do charting.

7. Your overall concept is a good one, but the implementation, as of now, is useless. I never saw your old version, so I can't compare it. But as a diabetic, I find the current rendition not ready for use. When I can log, chart, view, and email my glucose numbers as well as log, view, track, and email my meal history, this will be an excellent program. Right now, I'm better off continuing to carry around my little paper notebook and write down everything I eat and my glucose readings. That's what I've been doing for years and I was hoping this app would replace it but it doesn't come close.

They don't offer support. Period!

Great app, obviously not perfect yet but extremely helpful. I guess I've just become tired of waiting for the updates. I thought they said we could expect one soon, but soon came and went already.

My only issue is the lack of different graphs, altering previous log entries(must delete and re-enter certain ones), & that you cant enter a result less than 40 ml/dl.

I've gotten updates on about a million other apps and every time my device tells me theres an update available I get excited thinking it might be for GlucoseBuddy,...

In a nutshell, my biggest problem with this app is my own impacience! Afterall, it has inspired me to check more often(10 times a day now) resulting in a drop in my average from 180 to 160. Thats a great start!


Update - The websync is awesome. A "tip of the hat" to Matt Tendler for personally walking me through the issues. I look forward to the future of this app.


2nd Update - Even happier with this last update. I've had no issues whatsoever with it! Quick & Easy. Avg BG down to 140 (for now!). Five Stars!


On a side note, a recent slight modification in my Lantus/ Humalog dose, resulted in a major change in my control, so talk to your doctors and/or nutritionists, as I did, and make sure your on the best regimin for YOU. That change, along with this app, have made an amazing difference!


3rd Update:

I came back to using Glucose Buddy regularly again. I am very disappointed that there is a complete and utter lack of customer service or support. I have begged for even a response from email support and they simply don't respond. I cannot sync my logs and the dysfunctional app has a dysfunctional support staff...seemingly non-existent.

Bring back the old Insight

I liked the old insight before the update on 6/24/2021 . The old insight gave you your average for the day ,week ,month & year


Before the up date I’d give the app ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Allred15 ,

To much a month

I love this app but I think I got offered 9.99 a month but now it’s saying 14.99. Just can’t do it.

Very helpful app

I’m new to the whole diabetes game as I didn’t even know I was until a stroke 10/2020. Now I am scrambling to learn how to change everything to live with it. This app has been wonderful for a place to track and compare BG readings and track A1C. Would highly recommend this app for getting to know your diabetes through tracking readings and the tutorials.

Syjecoha ,

Where is customer service??

Cannot find a way anywhere in the app to contact customer service. I want to know why I was charged $54 for a $39.99 annual subscription. That’s a $14 difference.

B3llafroggy ,

Constantly trying to get you to upgrade

I started out using the free version and you could only get a graph of your glucose for that day. In order to see a week you had to upgrade to $29.99. No I just learned if you want to see a month worth of data you must once again you guessed it upgraded to $79.99. So now you are paying $109.98 for an app.

Also you have to upgrade in order to keep track of the food intake for the month and everything. This is way too expensive then to have to renew every year. I will cancel and hope it’s not as hard as others say it is to due. I will just go back to pen and paper logs and save my stuff under my apple health and see a larger graph for free. I don’t have $$$ to keep paying for upgrades.

Not worth it at all. Negative 0 stars if I could.

RVS70 ,

Suggestions

I really like the app but a few suggestions. Count the total carbs of the different food items added. And fix the bug that now generates a separate item when scanning a bar code instead of including it in the meal entry I am making.

Ms Hume ,

Can’t contact, can’t fix date

Has info I never put in, today’s date is 5/13/2020, entered today’s info date shows Dec 1969 I’ll get another

Kathyw18<3 ,

Awful

How do I cancel? There is no link to the billing portion of this and it is certainly not worth 39.99! Hopefully someone responds as the “app support “ link doesn’t work

Sonrisa G. ,

Great App but Sketchy Subscription/Customer Service

I got glucose buddy back in February around when I got diagnosed. The free features were great and eventually I decided to try a free week of their $29.99 subscription as I wanted to do better. The counselor I worked with (Liz) was great and very informative and the lessons I got to read the first week were helpful, at the end I agree to start the subscription and stupidly gave my card info (important), I did not pay through the Apple store. Once I was signed up I still had my counselor, but all of the added features were gone. Honestly I didn’t really think of it right away, but eventually I mentioned it to my counselor and it supposedly got fixed, I wasn’t sure what all the added features were so I can’t say everything was correct. Thanks to Covid and my work hours being cut I had to drop all extra bills. I contacted my counselor as I couldn’t find any customer support, contact info, or how to cancel a monthly subscription. She gave me the companies customer support e-mail and I contacted them. I was told they couldn’t do anything. It was a subscription through Apple, but it wasn’t....there is no record of it through Apple (except for the fact I downloaded the app through the App Store), and my bank was always charged directly by the Azumio company. Any subscription I have gotten through Apple were always billed to Apple, not the individual companies. Customer service kept saying only Apple could fix it..... but Apple can’t as it wasn’t through them!!!! In the end I had to go to my bank. Which is a shame as had they not pulled all this bs I would have re-subscribed when I could. The App features are good if you choose to get this app, but use with caution!

Latest update causes instant crash

I can’t use the Glucose Buddy app anymore, even though I am a premium member. It crashes every time I use it after the update that was pushed out on 7/9/2020. Please fix.

LTCISCO ,

7 Day Free Trial- Not

Hi! I agreed to a 7 day free trial and then $59.99 yearly. I was charged right away. What happened to my free trial? Also $71.99 came out of my account not $59.99. Something is seriously wrong.

articusseph ,

I wish I could have picked 0 stars.

Not user friendly at all. I paid for the subscription for the year (39.99) and after about a week I was so frustrated and really wondered why they charge anything for this worthless app. When I tried to cancel I had to go through Apple, I never heard anything back from my first request and now when I try to dispute it through resolution center it says non-refundable. Do not waste your money on this

Dianna9 ,

Says nothing re $39.99 subscription charge.

This app is not user friendly for diabetics tracking highs and lows w food. Also, got charged without any warning that is was $39.99-very misleading

jed46 ,

App crashes will not load

Paid.99 cents for upgrade will not work

Developer Response ,

Hi @jed46, thanks for leaving us a review! We would love to hear more about your problem at support@azumio.com. Please go ahead and send us a Bug Report through the app by going to the More tab-> Settings-> Tech Support-> Report a bug.


We look forward to hearing back from you!

Check up from Doctor

My A1-C has drop to 6 after using Jardiance. I have lost 13 pounds. My blood pressure is 120/70. My sugar is between 70 and 110. I feel great.

laptopworld98 ,

Newest update renders app useless

Newest update renders app useless. Why get rid of sugar graph bars that line up with daily exercise. Spent an entire $39.99 and app still falls short of previous revs. I’m moving to another app

Janis k-c ,

Charging now for what was free

So I've been using this app for a long time and loved the a1c feature then with last update you now have to pay $39.99/yr to do what I've been doing all this time for free

papapuka ,

Papapuka

I have found Glucose Buddy to be a great app for keeping track of my glucose readings 24/7/365.

I have tried other glucose app, but also returned to Glucose Buddy.

Now it’s the only app I’ll use.

Love the new format.

JNCNJ17 ,

A true life saver AND time saver!!

This app is excellent for all types of diabetics. It has an exceptional system for documenting meals, meds taken, and blood glucose levels. I am NOT tech savvy and I have been able to easily navigate this app. Within 3 days of using it I upgraded- it was worth every cent. There is even an A1C “predictor” as to what u might expect on your bloodwork.... I will have to come back in 2 months to let you know how close it was! Easy bar code scanning feature to document foods. Easy to document what you eat. A true life & time saver for me.

joe50! ,

Terrible update

Just can’t figure out this latest update. Prior to this last update I had no problem entering my glucose reading, meds with strength taken and foods I ate and saving same. This latest update make no sense to me so guess it’s goodbye Glucose Buddy

Update: 10/7/19 after just entering glucose # hot save then go back to what u just saved and the old screen appears.

Telejoke ,

Quirky and limited customer support.

This app is useable, but a bit quirky. It has limited customer support in the form of a brief FAQ and limited knowledge base.


They offer a few additional features for up to $59.95, and they auto renew without notice or any discernible way to cancel auto renew. After auto renewing, your premium service shuts down and you have to contact support (you can find the email address on their website about page).


I requested they update my account status or refund the money. If I can find out how to cancel auto renewal, I will do it. Otherwise, I’ll report them to my bank and request a block on future charges as suspected fraud.

SethandDes ,

Love this!

Very useful app! Great forum too! Wonderful developers. Try it out!!!

LDLacy ,

Works very well

This app works well but, needs improvement. I agree with a previous reviewer, it would be nice if it worked in landscape view. I also find it irksome that it reverts back to "Out of Bed" catagory after a input, especialy when one is going to use the same catagory for a second entry. Still its worth the mony not paid.

TechnoJanitor ,

Well done

Just started the journey of Type 1 with our 9 year old daughter. This has been a great app to log glucose, meds, activity, and Food intake. There is no built in food database, you add your own items. We just added a carbs entry to track total carbs. The in app graph for BG is helpful and entering logs is quick. The sync to the web is one of the strong suits. And the new 2 way sync, while a 19.99 add-on for a year, is keeping 3 iOS devices in our family in sync. One way sync is still free. Checking your data online yields more graphs and CSV export. Capturing the in app graph and emailing logs is also straightforward. My 9 year old has learned it quickly and enters logs on her iPod which sync with the premium feature to my and my wife's iPhones over the air. Developer responsive on forum and Facebook, you can tell this is a personal passion. Updates come regularly so I look forward to improvements. Free app with premium add-ons is a good model.

Wishlist: - Not email all log data each time.

- Web charts more compatible on more browsers and devices (uses Flash)

- In app graph do more than BG

- more food options such as portion sizes auto converting to carb amt and meal carb totals.

JR5263 ,

Multi-device sync is a good idea with a bad price

I've been a Type 1 for 24 years and was happy to find this app. I was looking forward to the multi device capability being added to Glucose Buddy and was VERY disappointed with the $19.99 a year charge for the multi device sync. I wouldn't mind paying $5 to $10 for the ability to use the app on my iPhone and iPad but it's just not worth the nearly $20 a year. The app itself is pretty good. It would be nice to have better carb tracking abilities. I just use Lose It for that. I won't be adding the new upgrade to my iPhone.

Bigbivie ,

Ability to enter earlier blood sugars

The app is ok but it is annoying that you cannot enter earlier tests. Some time I have forgotten to enter my blood sugar from earlier in the day and I can't enter so then I cannot send accurate info to my dr.

Ty Agar ,

I've dramatically reduced my insulin requirements

This has been important in tracking my progress with managing my diabetes. Due to Tim Ferriss' "The Four Hour Body" and Glucose Buddy, I went from taking insulin needles 4 times a day to zero (0) needles! This was in about 6 weeks!

The 49 Pang ,

Works well, easy to use

I don't use a lot of the features. It works well for keeping a journal of my blood sugar. I am hoping to be able to print out a three month report for the doctor.


Update 11-23-17: the ad for updating to a paid monthly service has taken a simple functional app and made it very difficult to retrieve my information. I am seriously looking for a replacement.


I have used this app for many years but now it’s just annoying. I am reducing the stars I gave it before.

Stortz ,

No good since update

Since the upgrade for iOS 11 this app is not worth the effort to download even though it is free. The only feature that works in the app is the advertisement to upgrade. Based on my experience I would pay the $59.00 per year for the app.

Unhappy @ KPN ,

Not impressed

Always something and says needs to have access to this or that. Wants to open Argus to be able to do motion detecting but when I do what it says there is no Argus to open....


Tried to contact support several times and get 404 file not found. 150 MB of space spying on my lifestyle and no way to contact them? Bah! deleted this app

Jmhfla ,

Worst ever

What a rip-off. The time stamp for recording food intake does not work. I paid $33.00 for nothing. Oh I f your color blind it won’t work for you. Now comes the worst part. When you paid for the one year it then let’s you know that it will be recurring. I have never written a review like this before and if I can’t get better information before I purchase another app for diabetes then I won’t buy it.

Josulon ,

Excellent application

Excelente programa

Sin duda alguna este programa nos ayuda a mantener un archivo de nuestro control de diabetes y mas aun cuando nos calcula el promedio diario del mismo. La diversidad del mismo en archivar otros parametros de salud como lo es la presion, el peso corporal y otros lo hacen uno induscutiblemente bueno. Lo recomiendo! Muy bueno.

Awesome application!!!!

Very user friendly and the reports and charts are a great tool I use with my doctor

Zepel B. Schtoonk III ,

Handy Tool

Reasonably good user interface - easy to use.

Good for data collection. Needs some additional reporting flexibility. Could use enhanced integration and data management features such as importing and exporting data. Automated integration between application and popular glucometers would make data entry far less time consuming and more accurate.

Danitra1023 ,

Jim

I really like this app as it helps me to track my BG numbers. I've looked at other apps but they seemed to be more tailored towards a type 1 person. I usually hand my phone to the doctor and let him scroll though the numbers and then I graph them for him.


Thanks

Horvendale ,

Great help

I use GB mostly to track my readings, though the other features are really good. The visual impact of the graph is a good motivator. And it's easy to send readings to my doctor.


And it's free. Thank you.

Like it alot. Wish there was a little more flexibility in the charting although their averaging is a nice feature. Like the backup feature

Tmayson ,

Excellent product

Simple and elegant. Keeps me on top of my blood sugars. My doctor loves the reports.

Yrfgjbfd ,

Almost 5 stars

Suggested improvements:

- allow graphing or viewing logs by time, for instance only "out of bed" numbers, to show trends over time. Currently only the high and low for the day is visible on the graph, but the low is not necessarily fasting.

- automatic syncing when signed in.

Review

I love this app. Entries are quick and easy and it is a great resource to help myself and my doctor watch how everyday life affects my levels and provides insight into ways to maintain healthy levels.

Ginevra2 ,

Good app

I like this app. It is convenient to record my glucose level results for various times of day. I can plot the results and see the trend.

My new Endrochronologist wanted me to keep track of three times in the day. She wanted to see columns of before breakfast, before dinner, and bedtime. I had a whole string of daily results, but she rejected them and has asked me to do them over on her sheets. Her sheets have columns of before breakfast, etc.

Maybe you could have an option to present the results this way. It is an easy step in a spreadsheet.

In any case, I think your app is great, in spite if my doctors' objections. I never had such a history of my blood sugar.

Thank you.

Songstermusicalia ,

Needs quick carb entry and basal log for pump

I like the add on of syncing with my iPad but HATE having to pay extra for no adds on an already expensive app. Entering carbs is way too labor intensive. Every new food has to be typed in. Also for it to really work for those on the pump it needs a way to keep track of basal rates.

felderguy ,

Nice app

It is a good app but there are features I never use. I don't use the blog stuff or the feature to record sugar before and after activities. I do use the graphing but only on the website where it's a lot more user friendly.

sidewize ,

Buttons, buttons, buttons

I gotta say, I really like this ap. Not only is it awesome because it's free, but it's really helping me keep up with my diabetes. Rather than just seeing a number on my glucose meter and thinking "Was that that day I had those potato chips?" I can add notes, and it will ask me then and there if it's mealtime, snacktime, etc.

I don't really use any of the extras on the bottom row, though. The only thing I'd add is a timer to remind you to check again or a food tracking system.

Jabmesilly ,

This app is great have been using it ever since it came out. Very useful and helpful...

JeffB996 ,

Solid app, and free, too

Very simple and useful app. Putting glucose readings into a simple graph should help all diabetics easily spot trends in their glucose readings. It will also help new patients who are trying to understand the mechanics of being a diabetic. Far, far better than the little paper diaries we all started with.


One important improvement I asked for and got is the keypad entry of my current glucose reading. Earlier versions used the thumbwheels, which defaulted to a number way out if my normal range. Entering the current value on a little keypad is very easy and convenient and also makes later corrections very easy. This is a very handy and important app for all diabetics.

Really helps me track my blood sugar and keep track pf when I exercise. I also really like it's A1C estimator. My doctor is always surprised at how close it is. I so miss one of the early features though. It seems I can't erase the graph and start fresh again after my doctor visits.

Renee222 ,

This is a great app. It is even better now that you can sync multiple devices. I use it on my iPhone, iPad and computer and they are all in sync. It tracks everything you need and generates reports you can send or give to your doctors.

Excellent Tool

I have always struggled to keep logs of my blood sugar readings. My son added this to my new iPad in September and in the past six months I have only missed two readings where I was out of strips. The improvements in my record keeping and the related better understanding of my disease not only made this app useful, but my purchase of the iPad worthwhile.


The interface is easy to follow and the print outs for my doctor are excellent diagnostic tools.

Great app for recording BG, insulin, food, etc!

I've been using this app for close to a year and I love it! Great system, easy recording, etc. However it was a much better app before they dumbed down the free version, taking some features away and adding advertisements.

GrammaKayO ,

Great app!

I started using this app right after I got my iPhone. I tried another app before finding this one, and it didn't compare with how easy this is to use. The only thing I wish it had is an A1C calculation. It keeps track of the average BG for you, so it seems like it would be pretty easy to add that feature. When I shared this information with my Dr., he decided to get an iPhone! I really find this app a great way to keep my records up to date!

It's in the numbers

Solid app for recording and reviewing BG and medication along with notes. It os also good to see the trend via the graph. The performance has suffered a little in the latest version (3.6) but it is a useful and handy app that is easy to use. My doctor wanted the name.

Does not count carbs

RVC-FR ,

Ok, for a free app...

This app is ok for tracking glucose levels, but it really doesn't do anything else. The fact that you can set up an account online is nice, but the features of the app are rather limited. The graph of glucose level is useful but the scale is way too wide (0-460 mg/dL??? Really???). And there isn't an option to change the time frame either... In summary, it's probably better to pay $3 for another app with more options or functions...

writemine ,

Need a Notes field

I love the app but it could be greatly improved with a text field to add notes about the circumstances or food item. Thanks

podcastsRcool ,

Never been so happy with an app

I can honestly say I have never been so happy with an app before. Great tools and organization. The only change I'd ask for is to make it possible to organize the log with folders for each day. The big long list can be hard to sort through. But still this app is crazy awesome!!!

Krum 08 ,

Good

Good app for recording and viewing blood sugars. I would think it would be wonderful if you could have a sync with the pump and meter like the meters can with pumps. This would make it much easier to accurately record your sugars.

Green Monstahs ,

Glucose Buddy is no Friend

As a diabetic and iPhone user I had hoped this app would solve my problem of manually having to record blood glucose and insulin data. Sad to report this product doesn't deliver as promised. Had problem with logs being accurate. Also customer service experience was the worse. Explained problem twice and could get them to understand the issue. Also, bought some add-on for $3.99, which I thought allowed me to access web-site and exchange data to iPhone and iPad....was told that feature is $14.99. When asked what the $3.99 charge was for...the customer support guy, Tom, said he didn't know. I've deleted the app and I'm $3.99 wiser.


Don't make the same mistake!!!

Tangle Eye ,

Very helpful app

I use this app daily to track my glucose readings. I really like the graph. That gives a quick visual of how I'm doing. Without this I would do a poor job of tracking I'm sure. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is there's currently no ability to sync to another device for backup or to move your history to a new phone. Maybe that will be in an upcoming release.

No Sugar for Me ,

Nice app

This works great. Having the data in the cloud is a big plus.

Bugboss55 ,

Newlydiag ,

Great application could use extra features

I have used it since the first day my daughter was diagnosed. It's very helpful and easy to use. I would love to see and insulin calculator( CF + I:cho) included in here. I have to go back and forward in between glucose buddy and other application. Another great addition would be a database with food carb information.

Also love little 3d journal and pen icon. Hope they aren't forced to ditch those by iOS7!!


4 stars because Food tracking is clunky, so I use myFitnessPal for that and just add the net carbs for each meal to Glucose Buddy using a dummy food item. Improve that or integrate with myFitnessPal and add a few more graphs - it would be 5stars.

good but could be better

I’ve been using this app since it was in early testing. Great app, no doubt. But why has development stalled? It needs to be updated for iOS 7 and for iPhone 5. I’d also like to see more add-ons available for purchase so I can track the other things I have to track. (temperature, FEV1, FVC, and FVE25-75; in case anybody at Asumio is listening).


Also, I detest the splash screen startup every single time I switch to the app. I wish it could hold a partial value while I switch over to calculator and switch back.

"can't establish connection to server"

Lately, the app is very unstable. It will not sync back to my PC half the time, making it very difficult to print my logs prior to my next MD appt... Borders on useless if this continues.

Disappointed

Problem with sync they keep asking me need to register and wrong username and password. I emailed to customer service 3 times and I still have not heard from them

Among my most used application.

They fixed the problem with syncing and timeouts with their servers.


I wish it would share data with other apps, especially Apple's Health app and hopefully MyFitnessPal as well.


This is a GREAT app, and one that can be a life saver!


I have been using Glucose Buddy for a while. I currently have over 8,400 records uploaded to the website. I test at least 3 times a day plus I use it to record all of my injections. This is the most useful tool I have in keeping my Diabetes under control. A quick glance at the graph allows me to look at a trend and see if I need to make a more general adjustment to my meds or food.

I have written scripts myself that import data that I export from the website into SQL Server where I can do additional analysis as well as pivot the data so that there is a single row per day which matches what the dietitians prefer when they look at my log records.


I wish that they would make adjustments to the graph to allow more than just High, Avg & Low. It would also be nice to see it have the option of an additional graph that is broken down by time of day or Event. It is irritating when it crashes after selecting the Event but I hope it is just a new bug that they will address in an update in the near future.


I highly recommend this app for anyone who is Diabetic and wants a great way to record their data and then look at trends, graphs, and the additional features that are available on the GlucoseBuddy.com website!

Good app, but lacks food support

Newly diagnosed Type 2, have been using the free version of the app for a week. I like the ease of logging blood glucose. I also like the method of the account data with the sync to the web app, which makes the data available on the computer instantly, instead of sitting on the Apple device until the Excel data is exported like other apps I tried. It can be used for several types of logs, which is nice. Unfortunately, logging food isn't as friendly as I'd like. Missing bar code scanning and other features that could make it more useful.

Works great and easy to log . I like that it syncs to a web site . I send this right to my doctor. I have only used the blood sugar part of this app.

Update

This app needs to be updated for compatibility. I continue getting pop ups from apple saying so. It's slowing things down on my iPhone. I hope the developer will pay attention, as they never have before. They take your money then leave you hanging.

4/4/2017 update: don't buy this app! I've had this for a long time and they continue not to update this app. In fact they won't communicate. Use the free version if you use it at all. Rip off! Take your money and run!

Don't won't your suger!

I use this app daily and love it.it give me a better view of what my body responds to

No support

On surface looks good. No support. Telephone number is not connected. I need to print charts for my Doctor, but can sync from my Iphone to the Web site. Continues to say my password or username is not correct. Emailed support three times no answer. If any one is out there would appreciate some help. With out the ability to syn and print from their online site the App is useless for me. The error may be mine but if support would contact me it might be possible to clear it up.

Helps

This has helped me keep up and able to show my Dr.when I see her

NicoleLNC ,

Great app!

Great app for allowing me to track so many things at one time and be able to show to my MD. I use the app daily.

Life saver

I was being a bad T-2 diabetic. Having this app gives me an easy way to track my BG and share the data with my MD. The forums section has some inspiring stories about why you want to be a "good" diabetic.

PlanoParr ,

Great chart for MD

I proudly present my readings history to my physician with GB. The only reason not to give it 5 stars is that too often the syncing fails because the server is down. But you lose no readings as the next time you try, it uploads two.

Glucose Buddy

This app is amazing. I can keep track, on my phone, all of my blood sugars and it will give me a breakdown of my A1C and I can print it to bring to my MD for my appointments.

The Holistic Doc ,

MD

The best app for keeping track of my own diabetes control. I'm so taken with it that it has become my standard advisory app for all my patients with diabetes; and they love it. Oh, by the way, I'm not being paid for this endorsement.

Good App, expensive add-ons

This is the best app I've found for monitoring my glucose. It's just a shame they really rip you to add a simple blood pressure measurement ($3.99) and the cost for basic multi-device sync at @12.99 is absolute piracy!

narcher007 ,

Great App, not updated in long time

Best glucose tracking app out there. Docked one star because it hasn't been updated for iphone 5/5s or iOS 7.

This is a very useful app. Makes my life easier. Keeping my MD informed of my blood sugars is a major benefit.

Easy to use.It works good for a record that my doctor can review. Thanks

Seems pretty good so far

I read reviews of many diabetic logging apps and felt this was one of the best two or three. Downloaded and have been trying it out for a couple of days. After in-app purchase of the two-way sync service ($12.99/year!!!) I experienced some challenges getting it to sync in both directions but finally found the button to "Sync All Logs" in the Settings panel.

So far I like the graphs and ways the info is presented. One screen-layout issue needs some attention: When adding a log, everything looks fine on the BG and A1C screens/tabs. But when switching over to enter meds, food, or activity the 3rd field (the one below date/time and notes) is separated from the other two by empty but valuable screen real estate. As a result the third field (where you are actually entering your data related to meds, food, or activity) is partially hidden behind the roller wheel/key pad which takes up the bottom half of the screen. This is an aesthetic as well as a functional refinement that should be easily addressed in a coming update

Glucose buddy is a real Buddy

Well with me it is so awsome! I have my phone at hand all the time, I don't always have a pin or my log book. I really love the buddy for logs and I can send it to my Doctor too . This is a really big help because I get really absent minded and It helps me keep organIzed ! Thanks so much. One thing I would add is, the ability to save notes without a glucose test . It's not possible at this time. Sometimes I get caught working away from my meter and am unable to test at that moment and would like to note it. But other than that I love this app. If not for the app, I'm really a bad log keeper.

The Add-Ons offered areSomewhat deceptive...

I have had this app for awhile, but I used another (now gone from the store) because I liked their interface better. I had to go to Glucose Buddy; and I saw that it offered syncing to their website with an add-on for $399. Well, the add-on they offer does NOT sync back and forth, ONLY TO THEIR WEBSITE. They want $12.99 per year for an add-on they describe as designed for syncing between several devices; which I was not doing.


I felt very ripped off, as I paid $3.99 for what was supposed to be the sync feature and another $3.99 to remove the ads.


Find another program if you can; this is NOT the way customers should be treated.

New to diabetes

Although I am not new to diabetes because my parents are both diabetic. But me personally, I am new to diabetes. The glucose buddy has helped me tremendously. I was diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. And glucose buddy has made it pretty simple to record everything. Food, blood sugar, I even put my blood pressure in the notes. I always have my glucometer with me, as well as my iPhone, so it's pretty easy for me to keep track. The emailing of charts is simple. I can send it to my wife, doctors, parents, anyone really. This program has made this transition easy for me. Thank you.

Where's the graph/chart????

This application is the best one I have ever used to track my diabetes. I used to have a pocket pc and the expensive program "Sinovio" diabetes application. This one beats it hands down. HOWEVER, v2.1 was better because of the graph. Now, if you could put the graphics/chart back into v3.0, you'd have the best on the market, even if cost $50.00, and that's no bull!! Please put it back in.

A terrific idea, but a bit clunky

I like the idea of being able to send my data to my doctor, but when I tried to set up the necessary Glucose Buddy account, I discovered that my username already had been taken. This almost certainly means I had created an account months ago and forgotten about it. But there is no "forgot password?" button, so I am left with probably two accounts, one a phantom and the other the one I now intend to use. This is my fault of course, but I'll bet it is a common occurrence, particularly for folks in the sixties (like me) who are the most likely customers of this product. I have used the second account, for the reason that I am unlikely to remember a distinctive user name that departs from the one I am accustomed to using. So for now, the application is of little use to me. These folks should follow the lead of nearly every other account-based system, and create a mechanism for absent minded customers to recover (and change) their password.


Also, I am sure the day is near when a glucose meter will be able to "talk" with Glucose Buddy or one of its competitors using Bluetooth; allowing critical basic information such as BGL and time, to be input automatically. As is, Glucose Buddy's input method is fairly easy, but time consuming and a bit clunky.

Great app but needs e-mail

This is a great little app that has improved over the last couple years. I'm upping my rating but still not 5 stars. A way to e-mail the log, or just a certain set of days, to my MD would be great. Will you please add this function?

Mauigirl2 ,

Glucose buddy

This easy to use app makes it easy to log numbers, write notes, graph and forward results to a MD. Can't figure how to view entered foods and activities. I have not bought the supplemental app.

GrayWolf68 ,

Very useful app.

This is a great way to track my blood sugar readings and medications. The email function is useful in that I can send it to my doctor when needed and forward a copy to my online medical alert database so it is available in an emergency. Very fast and helful support when I had email trouble with app + very willing to listen to my suggestions

This app has made being on top of my diabetes a snap!

I have to say that this app brightened my world.


A quick synopsis:  I have been a type 2 diabetic for 6 years.  I lost my meter in February and just became an ostrich.  I ate very well and figured, if I kept on my Metformin, things would be ok.


I decided to loose some weight in May and bought a scale.  I started eating even better than I usually do and walking a lot.  By July 4th I had reached my goal of going from 198 to 177.  So far, so good.  But the weight kept coming off.  Over the next couple days I kept dropping, eventually bottoming out at 168.


Long story short, my blood work revealed 496 fasting glucose and an A1C of 12!!!


I am now on two types of insulin, feeling great, still skinny, and relieved to have found this app!


In the first week or so of being on insulin, my doctor has been making me keep very detailed records of this, that, or the other thing. Glucose buddy has made being on top of everything a snap and I really feel it makes once more conscious of all aspects of diabetes management. I cannot think of a single function that it does not accomodate for me. Plus, when I have a question the developer gets back to me in no time.


Hey Matt...I could not do it without you!

DaVincis1st ,

buyer’s beware!

This is a buyer’s beware: if you buy this app be prepare to pay more money than you thought. I tried Glucose Buddy, and thought it to be adequate for what I need, so I bought it $3.99. After I bought it, I find out that you have to pay even more if you want the advertisements removed $3.99, and if you want a two way communication with your online backup it’s another $12.99 per year. They call these extra add-ons, which all other apps come with as part of the full version.
